Hydrogen production will scale up by several orders of magnitude in the coming decades. Blue hydrogen will be produced using CCS retrofits to existing steam methane reformers and new on-purpose blue hydrogen plants will be built. Many will convert the blue hydrogen to blue ammonia or methanol to enable international trade of these low-carbon energy vectors.

This course will explain how thermochemical hydrogen production technologies such as SMR, ATR, GHR and POx fit with integrated carbon capture. The optimum technologies for on-purpose blue hydrogen production are different to those that have been favoured for grey hydrogen.

Value stacking to profitably utilise the available process streams is key to competitive success in the international energy market. Up to date project case studies will be used to provide real life examples. Ammonia synthesis technologies will be within the scope of this training also.

Using the right technologies can mean the difference between a good and an excellent project –profit margins, energy efficiency and return on capital are at stake. If you are investing in the hydrogen economy or considering technologies to implement, a review of the options will be essential. This course will provide some insights support that.


This course includes:

  • An engaging virtual training session lasting approximately three hours

  • Interactive format with dedicated Q&A sections with the expert trainer

  • Session recording & pdf file of the presentation used during the session

  • Flexible access from modern mobile and desktop devices

  • A certificate of attendance on completion of the session


Agenda

Attend live or watch the recordings. Each session includes dedicated Q&A sections throughout.

  • Hydrogen production from SMR/ATR/POX plus CCS

  • Hydrogen, syngas and steam requirements and the implications for technology selection

  • Hydrogen and CCS CO2 pipeline pressure implications for technology selection

  • Technologies for ammonia and methanol synthesis

  • On-purpose blue hydrogen, ammonia, and methanol projects for international trade

  • Grey to blue CO2 capture retrofits

  • Value stacking and integration of low-carbon power generation and energy storage
