Zero Emission House

Towards the zero emission cycle


By means of an electrolyser, it is possible to produce hydrogen wherever water and electric energy are available; in it the molecule of water is split into its two constituent elements: hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). The produced hydrogen is sent to the catalytic burner H2ydroGEM® directly, or through an intermediate storage, while oxygen can be stored for other uses.

 

The absence of carbon into the reagent gives a reaction without CO2 emissions, while the low combustion temperature (300-350°C) avoids NOx formation. The only other product of the reaction is simply steam that can be released in atmosphere.

 

By using electrical energy produced with renewable sources for the water electrolysis, it is possible to set up an authentic zero emission cycle.
