Coal as Important Raw Energy Source
for Hydrogen Economy Development
in Europe

Coal is of great interest because it is:
•
Plentiful. Resource ~ 500 years
(vs. gas/oil: ~100 years).
•
Inexpensive. 1-1.5 $/GJ HHV
(vs. gas at 2.5+ $/GJ).
•
Ubiquitous. Wide geographic distribution
(vs. middle east).
•
Clean?! Gasification, esp. with sequestration,
produces little gaseous emissions and
a chemically stable, vitreous ash.

Technology
for Solid Fuel Gasification
Coke - oven gas as a model gas
mixture for development of advanced,
low cost separation - cleaning
technologies
• magnesium hydride as separation medium
for high temperature hydrogen recovery purification
• nanostructured iron for hydrogen
purification - storage in cyclic reduction oxidation process
Hydrogen : FRIENDLY , SAFE and
PROFITABLE material and energy carrier
• Hydrogen as a reagent for hazardous waste
treatment - dioxin free alternative to
incinerators ( EcoSteel )
• Hydrogen as energy source for biological
methods of value recovery ( metal and clean
water) from mine water drainage
