Rolls-Royce makes Duisburg container terminal climate-neutral with mtu hydrogen technology

Green Car Congress

Rolls-Royce will ensure a climate-neutral energy supply at the container terminal currently under construction at the Port of Duisburg, Germany. It will not only set new standards in cargo handling, but also in climate-friendly energy supply. The waste heat is used for process heat or for heating buildings in and around the port.

HyMethShip seeks to fuel ship engines with hydrogen from methanol

Green Car Congress

The methanol is mixed with water, then evaporated by applying heat and fed into the preheated reactor, where the mix of methanol and water is converted into hydrogen and CO 2. First, the waste heat from the engine is used to heat the reactor, significantly increasing the efficiency of the system. © Fraunhofer.
