Babcock & Wilcox (headquartered in Ohio) announced that it has reached an agreement on a term sheet for General Hydrogen Corp., a CGI Gases subsidiary, to purchase net-negative carbon intensity hydrogen from a biomass-fueled facility utilizing B&W’s BrightLoop process being developed by B&W in Louisiana.
As the exclusive partner within defined segments for the distribution of hydrogen produced at the plant, General Hydrogen would purchase and transport off-site up to 15 tons of hydrogen per day, and CGI Gases would purchase and transport compressed carbon dioxide (CO2) captured during the process.
B&W’s BrightLoop process is an innovative, scalable, chemical looping technology that can produce hydrogen from virtually any feedstock, including solid fuels such as waste wood and other types of biomass. The process also produces an isolated CO2 stream for capture, beneficial use or sequestration, as well as nitrogen that can be combined with hydrogen to create ammonia.
