摘要: The air quality in many United States ports is already at or in excess of EPA limits of harmful pollutants. Engine exhaust emissions of NOx, SOx, HC and particulate, as well as greenhouse gases, have reached levels high enough to significantly hamper civilian and military port and industrial commerce and development. The Port of Houston, for example, faces a potential total shutdown as a result of extremely poor air quality. Further, California's major ports have a number of important programs, such as dredging the Port of Oakland's harbor, expanding runways at the San Francisco International Airport, introducing new fast ferry services, and sighting new electric power generating stations. All of these projects are being held in abeyance pending the development of plans and techniques to minimize their anticipated impact on air quality. To that end, hydrogen fuel generation, based on non-petroleum fuels, offers a non-toxic, renewable, recyclable, and clean burning energy source for fuel cells, reciprocating engines and combustion turbine engines. The potential for this technology to reduce engine exhaust emissions is significant, given that the emission streams from the combustion (oxidation) of pure hydrogen are heat and water vapor. The proposed technology under review in this project will directly support CCDoTT goals by providing an option to obtain zero emissions from fuel cells. The technology originates with New Jersey-based Millennium Cell Corporation, which has developed a chemical process that solves the problems associated with generating, storing, and transporting hydrogen by extracting pure hydrogen gas from safe, environment-friendly raw materials.
