Session: Nuclear Hydrogen Plant Design, Analysis and Commercialization (2009 Annual Meeting)

Wednesday, November 11, 2009: 3:15 PM

Magnolia Boardroom B (Gaylord Opryland Hotel)

Description:

This session includes papers related to plant design and analysis and commercial applications for centralized hydrogen production using advanced nuclear reactors. Papers may include hydrogen plant process design, hydrogen and nuclear plant integration, economic assessments, market studies, infrastructure issues and similar plant related aspects. Hydrogen production can be based on conventional water electrolysis, high temperature steam electrolysis, nuclear-assisted methane reforming, thermochemical cycles, or similar water-splitting technologies.
