The world is becoming increasingly urbanized. As of 2018, 4.2 billion people lived in cities, representing more than half the global population. By 2050, experts predict this figure will rise to 7 billion, almost equal to today’s entire population. As more people flood into urban areas, the smart city movement has gained momentum. Smart cities, with their vast interconnected device …

New device separates hydrogen from natural gas when the two gases are blended in pipelines Dec 16, 2020 With clean hydrogen gaining recognition worldwide as the carbon-free fuel capable of making a significant contribution to addressing climate change, Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) today announced it will field test a new technology that can simultaneously separate and compress hydrogen from a blend …

                 SolaCulture array canopies supported by wire hoops   SolaCulture arrays collect and fluidynamically concentrate the direct and diffuse solar thermal energy absorbed by covered earth regions. Air intakes from engine driven co-fueled generators, heaters, or chimneys are used to create slightly sub-atmospheric pressures within regions covered by transparent microporous fabric canopies (crop covers). The sub-atmospheric pressure causes atmospheric air …

LONDON (July 15, 2020) – By 2030 the production of hydrogen fuel by “splitting” water—which can be carbon-free provided the electricity used in the process is produced by renewables—could become cost competitive with currently predominant methods that require the use of natural gas as a feedstock, according to analysis by the IHS Markit Hydrogen and Renewable Gas Forum. This so-called “green” hydrogen …
