UK project to produce clean hydrogen and graphene from biogas

The project will use methane extracted from sewage waste as a feedstock for hydrogen production. Levidian’s Loop device uses electromagnetic waves to split methane – the main component of biogas – into hydrogen and solid carbon. The hydrogen will be used to power an onsite generator at the facility and the captured carbon will be used to produce graphene. Graphene is a lightweight, conductive form of carbon that’s used in electronics and to strengthen composite materials such as concrete, fibres and car tyres. Levidian CEO John Hartley believes that production of such a high-value material could help address the cost barriers facing clean hydrogen. The unique molecular structure of graphene means it has exceptional properties like high tensile strength, excellent electrical conductivity, and transparency “[Clean] hydrogen … is currently being held back due to the… Read More »UK project to produce clean hydrogen and graphene from biogas
