Hydrogen Research Project Delivers EarthVision Environmental News BLAKELY, GA, September 3, 2002 - Researchers using biomass from peanut shells have ended a successful 100-hour experiment to demonstrate hydrogen production from this source. They announced a sustainable method to sequester vast amounts of carbon while making fertilizer. This is one of the largest biomass to hydrogen projects in the US. The hydrogen research team broke through the 100-hour mark and ended their demonstration of producing hydrogen from 100-lb per hour of biomass on August 30, 2002. The team, comprised of researchers from Clark Atlanta University, Georgia Institute of Technology, DOE National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Scientific Carbons, Inc. and Enviro-tech, Inc., began the experiment on August 25, 2002 producing hydrogen from biomass (peanut shells) as the culmination of a two-year field research project. The project has focused on expanding the demonstration of hydrogen production while producing valuable co-products from farm and forestry sources of biomass. In this case the co-product also serves as a long-term sequestered carbon. The need for co-products is essential to developing a profitable and sustainable hydrogen economy. gnet.org
