✦ Synopsis

Hydrogen is believed to be the energy source of the future, enabling zero-emission and efficient production of power. This comprehensive publication presents a broad spectrum of various chemical aspects of hydrogen storage. The authors also address global climate change issues, carbon dioxide sequestration problems and CO₂-based hydrogen storage.

• Gives an in-depth overview of how hydrogen can be generated from a variety of sources.
• Explores the technical challenges and state-of-the-art in hydrogen storage.
• Discusses how to eliminate carbon dioxide during hydrogen production.
