A group of UK engineers is at the forefront of hydrogen research, aiming to drive innovation in decarbonizing industry. Professor Mark Sykes from the University of Glasgow is leading a project on decoupled electrolysis to generate hydrogen directly from seawater. This novel approach not only enhances safety and efficiency but also allows for the production of hydrogen in locations separate from oxygen generation. The team is exploring suitable mediators for seawater electrolysis, with the goal of testing them in a prototype device for scaled-up production. Meanwhile, Alfonso Martinez-Felipe from the University of Aberdeen is focused on repurposing offshore assets for hydrogen transport. The team is assessing the feasibility of using existing steel-based materials in offshore infrastructure for long-range hydrogen transport, while addressing challenges such as hydrogen embrittlement. By testing mechanical properties and hydrogen diffusivity under various conditions, they aim to create a toolkit for industry to repurpose infrastructure for hydrogen transportation. Projects like the Dolphyn Hydrogen initiative are already paving the way for integrated offshore hydrogen production. By combining wind power with desalination for electrolysis, these projects demonstrate the potential for sustainable hydrogen generation at sea. Research priorities include addressing technical challenges such as fine-tuning anode potentials, optimizing hydrogen release processes from seawater, and understanding the impact of different variables on current density. The enthusiasm and dedication of these engineers underline the UK's commitment to advancing hydrogen technology for a greener future.
