Southern California-based Catalyx Nanotech is looking for landfill sources of biogas to demonstrate its process of separately capturing elemental hydrogen and carbon. The hydrogen will be used in onsite fuel cells to produce electricity far more efficiently (42%) without greenhouse gas emissions compared to an efficiency of just 23% when landfill gas is burned directly. The carbon can be sold as a valuable, high-grade graphite suitable for nanomaterials applications. CatalyxNano has teamed with infrastructure developer Dudek to commercialize the biohydrogen process.
