Amafutha aphuma emanzini kanye ne-carbon dioxide

Umkhiqizi wezimoto waseJalimane i-Audi isiqalile ukukhiqiza uphethiloli wedizili wokwenziwa emanzini kanye ne-carbon dioxide eDresden. Lawa maphethiloli edizili "aluhlaza" kumazinga amaningi, njengoba i-CO₂ yale nqubo ivela ku-biogas futhi ugesi we-electrolysis yamanzi nawo uvela emithonjeni "ehlanzekile".

Ubuchwepheshe bubandakanya i-electrolysis yamanzi abe yi-hydrogen nomoya-mpilo ezingeni lokushisa elingu-XNUMX degrees Celsius. Ngokusho kwe-Audi nomlingani wayo, lesi sigaba sisebenza kahle kakhulu kunezindlela ze-electrolytic ezaziwa kuze kube manje, njengoba ingxenye yamandla ashisayo isetshenziswa. Esigabeni esilandelayo, kuma-reactors akhethekile, i-hydrogen ihlangana ne-carbon dioxide ngaphansi kwengcindezi ephezulu kanye nokushisa okuphezulu. Kukhiqizwa iketango elide le-hydrocarbon fuel ebizwa ngokuthi "Blue Crude Oil".

Ngokusho komkhiqizi, ukusebenza kahle kwenqubo yoguquko kusuka kugesi ovuselelekayo kuya kuphethiloli owuketshezi kungu-70%. I-Blue Crude ibe seyenza inqubo yokucwenga efana nowoyela ongahluziwe ukuze ikhiqize uphethiloli wedizili olungele ukusetshenziswa ezinjinini. Ngokusho kokuhlolwa, ihlanzekile kakhulu, ingaxutshwa nophethiloli we-diesel wendabuko futhi maduze izokwazi ukusetshenziswa ngokuhlukana.
