Ukufakwa kanye nokuthunyelwa kwemishini kwenziwa yi-British Division of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries ngokuhleleka kwenkampani yase-Austrian Voestalpine. I-nikkeisia portal ayisho ukuthi ukukhiqiza kukhiqiza lapho kukhiqizwa ukukhiqizwa kufanele kwenzeke, kepha kubika yonke imisebenzi isondele. Lesi sigayo sensimbi e-Austria sizoba yibhizinisi elifanayo elikhulu kunawo wonke emhlabeni elisebenza kwinqubo yezobuchwepheshe nge-zero carbon dioxide ukuphuma emvelweni.
Ukwahlukaniswa kobunjiniyela bezinto ezithintekayo zaseJapan ingxenye yesithathu emhlabeni emakethe yabakhiqizi bemishini yensimbi. Onjiniyela baseMitsubishi basebenza ngenkuthalo ekuthuthukisweni kwenqubo ye-hydrogen entsha yokubuyiselwa kwensimbi kusuka ku-ore. Lobu buchwepheshe buqhathanise nama-dom bendabuko, kukhona ukubuyisa okubalulekile - okukhipha okuncane kwensimbi. Isitshalo esisha se-Voetalpine sizokhiqiza amathani ayizinkulungwane ezingama-250 ngonyaka.
Kodwa-ke, ngakolunye uhlangothi, eziningi nezinzuzo: ngaphezu kokuheha kwemvelo, izimpande ezinjalo zingaphezu kokushibhile kabili kwezizinda zakudala. Yize ehlelekile futhi afana nabo. Udaba olusemqoka lokusebenza kahle kwezomnotho komkhiqizo wensimbi ye-hydrogen kuyisindleko se-hydrogen. Intengo yamanje yemakethe yale gesi iyashintshashintsha endaweni yedola elilodwa lase-US nge-Cubic Meter (cishe ama-ruble angama-74). Lapho ugcina ijubane lesimanje lokuthuthuka kwemboni yokukhiqiza i-hydrogen, kufanele iwe ngaphezu kathathu ngo-2030.
Kepha ngisho nangamathemba anjalo mayelana neMetallurgy yemvelo ngokuphelele, kusesekuseni kakhulu ngephupho. Ochwepheshe ekhasini lemboni lezo zinqubo ezinhle ngempela ezifanayo nezimboni ezisindayo zaseMitsubishi zizoba kuphela ukwehla kwe-hydrogen. Kodwa-ke, imboni esindayo ihlala ikhula ngesisekelo sokuhlela isikhathi eside. Ngakho-ke, i-Voetalpine ngonyaka ka-2019 yangenisa isitshalo sokukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen ngamandla kagesi ama-megawatt ayisithupha. Leli yibhizinisi elinamandla kakhulu emhlabeni ukuthuthukisa "okuluhlaza" kwe-hydrogen, okungukuthi, imithombo yamandla evuselelekayo isetshenziselwa ukuyithola.
