Abstract
Rising worldwide energy demand and the threat of fossil fuel depletion are driving a move toward renewable energy. Research encourages the use of clean and sustainable energy sources. This review focuses on bio-hydrogen generation, nanomaterials, and future developments. Power-to-hydrogen coupled with hydrogen-to-power (P2H-H2P) systems have come a long way recently. The focus is on technology, modeling, problems, cost-effectiveness, and sector linkage for sustainability and carbon neutrality. This research focuses on the generation of hydrogen from metal trash such as scrap aluminum, magnesium, and zinc. The comparative analysis, purification approaches, and constraints are reviewed, revealing possible uses and future opportunities. In this comprehensive analysis, microalgae, particularly for hydrogen generation, provide sustainable options for carbon-neutral biofuel production, efficiency, and other problems. This review examines traditional hydrogen-generating approaches such as steam methane reforming (a coal-based biomass gasification method) and water electrolysis. This field focuses on emerging technologies such as photocatalytic water splitting, solid-state oxide electrolysis cells, hydrogen production, and chemical-based cycling. Advanced differentiation techniques are also discussed. This study continues by discussing difficulties and opportunities, with a focus on material enduring rigidity, the effectiveness of costs, expansion, and incorporation into massive amounts of hydrogen-manufacturing facilities, all of which are subjects for further research. In addition, this review discusses emerging trends and potential breakthroughs that will shape the future of hydrogen generation.
期刊介绍:
The Process Safety and Environmental Protection (PSEP) journal is a leading international publication that focuses on the publication of high-quality, original research papers in the field of engineering, specifically those related to the safety of industrial processes and environmental protection. The journal encourages submissions that present new developments in safety and environmental aspects, particularly those that show how research findings can be applied in process engineering design and practice.
PSEP is particularly interested in research that brings fresh perspectives to established engineering principles, identifies unsolved problems, or suggests directions for future research. The journal also values contributions that push the boundaries of traditional engineering and welcomes multidisciplinary papers.
PSEP's articles are abstracted and indexed by a range of databases and services, which helps to ensure that the journal's research is accessible and recognized in the academic and professional communities. These databases include ANTE, Chemical Abstracts, Chemical Hazards in Industry, Current Contents, Elsevier Engineering Information database, Pascal Francis, Web of Science, Scopus, Engineering Information Database EnCompass LIT (Elsevier), and INSPEC. This wide coverage facilitates the dissemination of the journal's content to a global audience interested in process safety and environmental engineering.
