Finding better, cleaner ways to produce, store and distribute hydrogen can have substantial environmental benefits. Hydrogen is used in fertilizer, many industrial processes, and is being explored as an energy source for transportation. But crating it is energy intensive, often burning fossil fuels that have negative climate effects.
On this episode of Deeper Shade of Green, University of Buffalo Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering Chari Mark Swihart explains possibly energy uses for hydrogen, as well as research into how to produce it more cleanly. That, he says, shows promise in fighting the climate crisis.
Music for this episode of Deeper Shade of Green comes from the Syracuse-based Jazz group E.S.P., the song is Reach.
Production help, research and guest booking by Hector Perez.
