Cogeneration of Hydrogen, Power and Valuable Metal Oxides from High Temperature Oxidation of Metals with Air or Water
FY 2023-24
Summary
Affordable, high energy and power density as well as easy to trade energy storage is required for widespread use of renewable energies. Cogeneration of power, zero carbon emission hydrogen and valuable metal oxides such as high purity alumina from high temperature oxidation of metals such as aluminum or iron is an emerging technology with these requirements. Such a cogeneration cycle based on using metals is sustainable through recycling of the metal oxide byproduct if zero carbon energy sources are also used during the recycling process. This project builds on a successful partnership between GH Power and the Energy and Particle Technology Laboratory in Carleton University to obtain critical data needed for the development of the first cogeneration reactor.
