Hydrogen and Value-Added-Carbon production through Waste Heat Recovery: Hy-Value Recovery

该合作项目将开发，建造和运营一个工业规模的演示器，Torstran生产演示器。它将利用钢铁和玻璃制造业的余热，展示将可再生/废弃甲烷转化为氢气的能力，作为钢铁和玻璃制造业的工艺化学品。Torstran Production Demonstrator还生产高价值的碳产品Torstran。Torstran被用作电动汽车（EV）复合结构中的电磁屏蔽（EMI）组件，并作为锂离子电池添加剂进一步促进低碳经济。Torstran还具有用于导电涂料和空气过滤的潜力。该项目的成功交付将大大有助于英国工业实现其环境目标。这将通过减少基础工业的碳足迹来实现（最初是钢铁和玻璃制造），替代“灰色”氢气工艺气体（用作还原性气氛），该项目将立即在圣海伦地区创造高价值的就业机会，随着电动汽车的需求，预计就业机会将大幅增长。其他部门增加。

This collaborative project will develop, build and operate an industry scale demonstrator, the Torstran Production Demonstrator. It will use waste heat from steel and glass manufacturing to demonstrate the ability to convert renewable/waste methane into hydrogen for use as a process chemical in steel and glass manufacturing. The Torstran Production Demonstrator also produces a high value carbon product Torstran. Torstran is used as an Electro Magnetic Shielding (EMI) component in electric vehicle (EV) composite structures, and as a Li-ion battery additive further contributing to the low carbon economy. Torstran also has potential for use in conductive coatings and air filtration.Successful delivery of this project will contribute significantly to allowing the UK industry to achieve its environmental targets. This will be achieved by reducing the carbon footprint of the foundation industries (initially steel and glass making), replacing 'grey' hydrogen process gas (used as a reducing atmosphere) with near-zero CO2 hydrogen and contributing to the development of electric vehicle manufacturing in the UK.The project will immediately create high value jobs in the St Helens region with significant job growth anticipated as demand from the electric vehicle and other sectors increases.
