Not long ago, the Israeli Ben Gurion University developed a vehicle-mounted hydrogen production system in cooperation with Exxon Mobil Corporation of the United States and Canada Gas Purification Technologies. The system can directly convert fuels such as gasoline, diesel, ethanol, and biodiesel into hydrogen for fuel cells for use by automobiles, eliminating the need for transportation and storage of hydrogen fuel.
At present, most hydrogen-fueled cars usually use high-compression or liquid-hydrogen fuels. They not only think about transportation and storage inconvenience, but also carry out large-scale infrastructure renovations, such as building many hydrogenations in various locations. This is one of the major obstacles to the popularization of hydrogen fuel vehicles.
In view of this situation, researchers from Gurion University and ExxonMobil of the United States believe that since the transportation and storage of hydrogen fuel is difficult, they should change their minds and let the car bring its own device. As a result, they developed a method of miniaturizing a conventional hydrogen production device that can be directly installed in a car. By simply inputting conventional fuels such as gasoline and diesel, it can be converted into hydrogen energy for use in a fuel cell. As the system does not need to change the existing fuel transportation and storage infrastructure, it solves a major problem for hydrogen fuel automobile manufacturers.
Emile Jacobs, vice president of R&D at ExxonMobil, said they have successfully developed a crane that uses the vehicle's hydrogen production system and is ready to commercialize it. Nevertheless, this is only a preliminary result and there is still a long way to go to popularize this technology. Because the fuel conversion rate of this system has 80% higher potential than traditional internal combustion engine technology and can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 45%, it has a good application prospect in the long run.
