Methane Pyrolysis to Power research project achieves key milestone

The Net Zero Technology Research Project is dedicated to advancing zero-carbon emission technologies. To support the transition of conventional gas-fired equipment toward gas/hydrogen co-firing systems, we have developed a methane/natural-gas cracking system that has now reached pilot-scale production. The system can stably produce a hydrogen/natural-gas mixture containing 50% hydrogen at a rate of 2.5 m3/hr. Its energy consumption for hydrogen production is 9.7 kWh per kilogram of H2, which is lower than the values reported for other hydrogen-production technologies in the literature. The equipment design and experimental analysis have been compiled and reported in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy (Impact Factor: 8.3; Update Date: June 2025). “Methane pyrolysis for mixed hydrogen power generation: Performance of two pilot-scale moving-beds.”
