| Abstract | Transition to the Net-Zero economy requires new sources of energy. Hydrogen is one of the promising candidates to replace carbohydrates. Emission-free technologies for hydrogen production are pivotal for this transition. However, the existing technologies to produce hydrogen are either polluting or energy-intensive. In recent years, a reaction of aluminum with water generating hydrogen has attracted a lot of attention. Most of the research is done with solid aluminum and analyzed mostly from the chemical and energy points of view. In this overview paper, rarely mentioned metallurgical aspects of this reaction are considered, as well as potential integration of the related technology into a green aluminum production cycle. The advantages of using liquid aluminum as well as related safety aspects are highlighted. A reaction of aluminum with water generating green hydrogen attracts a lot of attention recently.

Here, rarely mentioned metallurgical aspects of this reaction are considered, especially for liquid aluminum, and potential integration of the related technology into aluminum production cycle is highlighted.image (c) 2024 WILEY-VCH GmbH |
