Introduction: Einstein InspirationIntroduction: Einstein Inspiration
Upon entering the Oak Ridge Laboratory, a visitor stands beneath a photograph of Albert Einstein writing a letter to President Roosevelt.
The occasion was a time of crisis for our country and for the world. The intent of Einstein was to impress upon Roosevelt the imperativeness of atomic research funding. Roosevelt’s foresight to fund this research ended the war. A new opportunity exists to end our energy crisis and begin new era of energy independence.

Hydrogen OptionsHydrogen Options
• Production by Methane Degradation CH4 + 2H2O = 4H2 + CO2
• Produces large quantities of CO2
currently released into the atmosphere as an undesired by-product this method is NOT environmentally friendly
• For every pound of H2 produced 4 lbs. of CO2 is produced (1/4 ratio H2:CO2)
• This method relies upon domestic or foreign methane and does NOT promote U.S. Energy Independence

Hydrogen Electrolysis OptionHydrogen Electrolysis Option
• Converts water into hydrogen and oxygen
• NO CO2 produced
• Environmentally friendly
• High economic value to both gases produced (H2 and O2)

Hydrogen as a Carrier MoleculeHydrogen as a Carrier Molecule
• Hydrogen as a direct fuel provides much lower energy output than hydrogen when used in a Methane molecule
• 319 BTU per cubic foot of hydrogen versus 1000 BTU per cubic foot of methane (3.13:1 ratio methane/hydrogen)

Hydrogen Use for Fuel CellsHydrogen Use for Fuel Cells
• Environmentally friendly
• Current cost prohibitive for wide spread application and increased contamination of membranes when hydrogen produced by methane degradation
• No infrastructure to support this technology

Energy Efficiency and Economic Energy Efficiency and Economic Viability AnalysisViability Analysis
• Methane based hydrogen production costs fluctuate as a function of geo methane (natural gas prices)
• Electrolysis based hydrogen production costs are much more stable
• Electricity can be acquired from multiple sources
© King Power Corporation© King Power Corporation
Energy Efficiency and Economic Energy Efficiency and Economic Viability Analysis - IIViability Analysis - II
• Methane based hydrogen production has incurred environmental costs that will include fines for releasing CO2
into the environment• Electrolysis based hydrogen production has NO
COSTS related to CO2 as NONE is produced• Synthetic Methane produced by Green Methods using
CO2 and hydrogen as a substrate consumes CO2, providing environmental and economic benefits
• Synthetic Methane producers will likely be paid to remove CO2
• Synthetic Methane Reactors produce HEAT as part of their chemical reaction which can be used for steam generation and further production of electricity/H2/O2
