New process produces hydrogen from methane, without emitting CO2

Natural gas accounts for over 28 percent of US energy consumption. Its main component, methane, is a widely-used fossil fuel but also a major contributor to rising CO2 levels, and thus climate change. To address this issue, researchers from the Institute of Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS) and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have developed a process that extracts the energy content of methane, in the form hydrogen, without producing carbon dioxide.

I’ve said for ages that methane + heat (with or without catalysis) = hydrogen + diesel.

Petrol can be obtained instead of diesel if required.

Could be easier just making better batteries in the end , no need for all the stuff asssociated with regilling tanks with hydrogen. Mostvcar trips could be done with batteries. Trucks could just continue using diesel.

Keep the railway for shifting raw materials from the mines
