Role of Green hydrogen in Environmental Control

    Green Hydrogen role in Environmental Control 

      Green hydrogen plays a key role in environmental control by offering a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, significantly reducing "greenhouse gas emissions" and "promoting a cleaner energy transition". Its production, primarily through electrolysis powered by renewable energy, minimizes harmful pollutants, contributing to decarbonization and a low-carbon economy. 
   Furthermore, green hydrogen can be stored and integrated into renewable energy systems, addressing the intermittency of sources like solar and wind. 
 Detailed look at its benefits:-
1)  Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions:-
   Green hydrogen production, using renewable energy sources like solar and wind, generates little to no greenhouse gas emissions during its lifecycle. 
  This is in stark contrast to traditional hydrogen production methods that rely on fossil fuels, which release significant amounts of CO2 and other pollutants. 
      By replacing fossil fuels with green hydrogen, industries and transportation sectors can drastically cut their carbon footprint. 
2)Decarbonizing Hard-to-Abate Sectors:-
   Green hydrogen is particularly crucial for decarbonizing sectors that are difficult to electrify directly, such as heavy industries (steel, cement) and long-distance transportation (shipping, aviation). 
   These sectors often require high-temperature heat or energy-dense fuels, which green hydrogen can provide without the associated emissions. 
3) Enhancing Energy Security and Stability:-
   Green hydrogen can be produced using locally available renewable resources, reducing reliance on imported fossil fuels and enhancing energy security. 
      Excess electricity from renewable sources can be converted into green hydrogen and stored, addressing the intermittency of wind and solar power and ensuring a stable energy supply. 
  This stored hydrogen can then be used to generate electricity when needed or as a fuel for various applications, improving the overall reliability of the energy system. 
4) Promoting Sustainable Agriculture: -
   Green hydrogen can be used to produce green ammonia, a key component in fertilizers, reducing the carbon footprint of agricultural practices.
   It can also power irrigation systems and post-harvest processing facilities, enhancing food production while minimizing environmental impact.
5) Advancing a Circular Economy:- 
  Green hydrogen can be produced from various waste streams and used in a variety of applications, promoting a circular economy model.
   For example, hydrogen can be produced from biomass or wastewater, contributing to resource efficiency and waste management.

Solar Generation in Night hrs

How to get get Solar generations in Night        While standard solar panels cannot generate electricity at night,     New technologies are being developed to address this limitation.      These advancements focus on harnessing the earth's heat or using infrared radiation emitted by the Earth to generate power, potentially creating 24-hour renewable energy sources.  Key Concepts and Technologies :- 1) Anti-Solar Panels (Thermo-radiative Cells):- How they work:-    These panels, also known as thermoradiative cells, work in reverse of traditional solar panels. Instead of absorbing sunlight, they emit infrared radiation into space, which is then converted into electricity.    Nighttime energy:-     They can generate electricity from the difference in temperature between the panel and the surrounding environment, essentially converting the heat escaping into space back into usable power.  Potential:-  ...

Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power

  Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power         Statement "1000 pounds" per day of hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power in the world" is not accurate.     While hydrogen can be produced from renewable energy sources like solar and wind power, it's not a replacement for those sources themselves. Hydrogen production via electrolysis, using renewable electricity, is a promising avenue for decarbonization, but it doesn't negate the need for solar and wind power as direct energy sources.  Cause behind its is as under. Hydrogen as an Energy Carrier:-     Hydrogen is an energy carrier, meaning it stores energy produced elsewhere (like from solar or wind) and can be used to power fuel cells or for other applications.  Electrolysis:-     A key method of producing "green" hydrogen involves using electricity from renewable sources (like solar and wind) to split water into hydrogen and oxygen throu...

Lift off the ground during seismic activity, minimizing damage in Japan

Lift off the ground during seismic activity, minimizing damage in Japan     Japan has developed a technology that allows houses to literally lift off the ground during earthquakes, protecting them from damage.    This is achieved using a system of compressed air and sensors that inflate an airbag under the house, lifting it a few centimeters during tremors. The house then gently settles back down when the shaking stops.      Japan has developed innovative earthquake-resistant technology that allows houses to lift off the ground during seismic activity, minimizing damage. This is achieved through systems like the one developed by Air Danshin, which uses compressed air to lift houses on airbags. When sensors detect tremors, the airbag inflates, raising the house a few centimeters and preventing it from shaking violently with the ground.    More detailed explanation: Airbag Technology:- Air Danshin has pioneered the use of large airbags placed b...
