Summary
THE USE OF HYDROGEN AS FUEL FOR GROUND AND AIR TRANSPORTATION IS TO BE PREFERRED IN THE LIQUID PHASE, DUE TO ITS LOW VOLUMETRIC ENERGY DENSITY. HOWEVER, THE LIQUEFACTION OF HYDROGEN CONSUMES A LARGE AMOUNT OF ENERGY, SINCE ITS BOILING POINT IS RATHER LOW. BASED ON THE ELECTROLYTIC PRODUCTION, A POTENTIAL OF ENERGY REDUCTION EXISTS THAT CAN BE EXPLOITED BY SELECTING THE PROPER PROCESS PARAMETERS. THE LIMITS OF THIS ENERGY DECREASE ARE ANALYZED.
