HyTime – Fermentative Hydrogen Production HyTime Process H2 Feedstock Gas Upgrading Water H2+CO2 Biogas CH4+CO2 Organic Acids Sugars Heat CO2 Biomass Pretreatment Thermophilic Fermenter Biogas Fermenter Electricity Fertiliz. Chemicals Non-Ferm. C6H12O6 + 2 H2O → 2 CH3COOH + 4 H2 + 2 CO2 CH3COOH → CH4 + CO2

  4. HyTime – Fermentative Hydrogen Production Our Task: Process / system integration to ensure • maximum product output • minimum energy demand • minimum costs for the overall HyTime process by • optimal combination of process units / steps / equipment • development of an integrated system based on • modeling / process simulation • process integration • up-scaling and engineering • technical and economic evaluation • experimental studies

  6. HyTime – Fermentative Hydrogen Production Project goals: • Investigation of the potential of selected biomass and optimization of tailor-made pretreatment / fractionation procedures for high mobilization of fermentable sugars • Robust and stable conversion of feedstock to hydrogen in continuous fermentation at productivities of 1-10 kg H2/d • Development of a highly efficient gas cleaning unit for biologically produced hydrogen • Development of an integrated overall process • Process design, scale-upand cost analyses at a commercial scale • This project is co-financed by European funds from the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking under FCH-JU-2010-4 Grant Agreement Number 278855
