Objectives
Develop the technology stack that will enable 100% H2combustion in the glass industry;
Validate H2GLASS technology through application in industrial context;
Prove economic and environmental viability of H2GLASS solutions compared to fossil fuels;
Develop IT architecture for automatic control and management and more efficient industrial processes;
Raise public understanding on H2 technology as solution for decarbonising industrial processes;
Transfer technology to other EU energy-intensive industries.
Methodology
Develop specific furnace systems with improved heat transfer efficiency and minimal emissions
Adapt factory infrastructure to H2 process integration
Optimise mixed use of fossil fuels and H2
Develop new models and algorithms for automatic control of combustion system and furnace
Implement measurement instruments and imaging techniques to monitor H2 flames
Develop required big data infrastructure for data storage and analysis
Testing of H2GLASS technology in 6 Industrial demonstrators supplied with H2 by a portable electrolyser
Including one Industrial demonstrator representing the EU Aluminium Industry to test transferability of H2GLASS solutions to other energy-intensive industries
Assessment of technological, economic and societal impacts of green H2 compared to fossil-based fuels
A first important step for the H2GLASS project, was to get together to connect and plan the common activities. All partners gathered in Ljubljana, Slovenia to get to know each other better, visit the first Industrial Demonstrator – Steklarna Hrastnik – and focus on the workplan of the first months..Read More
