Woodinville’s Modern Hydrogen Brings Carbon-Sequestered Asphalt to Snohomish Road

A Woodinville company this week demonstrated an element of its road, literally and figuratively, to making energy cleaner and cheaper. Modern Hydrogen developed a process, methane pyrolysis, which strips carbon out of natural gas, creating a solid form of carbon whose uses include sequestration into roads. Additionally, stripping carbon out of natural gas leaves hydrogen that can be used for clean power.

BIC Magazine: Strategic decarbonization: Meeting the demands of modern industry

Methane pyrolysis, an innovative process converting natural gas into hydrogen by removing carbon at the point of use, offers a promising solution. This approach allows industries to cut their carbon footprint without requiring new infrastructure or straining the overburdened electrical grid. Modern Hydrogen, a technology company focused on decarbonizing industrial processes, specializes in methane pyrolysis. Utilizing existing natural gas infrastructure, their technology offers a scalable and efficient way to reduce emissions while integrating smoothly into industrial systems, eliminating the need for major upgrades.

Hart Energy: New Revenue Stream Opens Up With Natural Gas Decarbonization

Could a lower carbon revenue stream, focused on hydrogen and solid carbon, open up for natural gas players? Depending on the production method, it has no CO emissions. It has two main value-adding products. It is produced from natural gas—an abundant, low-cost energy source in the U.S. And, technology breakthroughs could elevate its status on the so-called Swiss Army knife of energy and amplify its impact on the world’s decarbonization journey. Pyrolytic hydrogen, or “turquoise hydrogen” for those familiar with the hydrogen color wheel, is produced via pyrolysis. The process involves heating natural gas, or methane (CH ), to temperatures of at least 900 C to break the molecule into hydrogen and carbon—both of which have established markets.
