Life Cycle Assessment of Hydrogen Production Javier Dufour Systems Analysis Unit

For developing novel alternatives for hydrogen production MOST ENVIRONMENTALLY- FRIENDLY SYSTEM FROM A GLOBAL POINT OF VIEW? Reduction of CO 2 emissionsTechnical aspects LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT Powerful tool for taking into account all the stages of processes Total environmental impact

 Environmental performance of steam reforming of natural gas, ethanol and bioethanol is evaluated from a life-cycle point of view  Comparison of results obtained with Eco-indicator 99 and Eco- indicator 95

Total single score Analysis with Eco-indicator 99 Normalization factorWeighting factor Human health Ecosystems quality Natural resources The most environmental- friendly process is the reforming of bioethanol (despite land use penalty) High environmental impacts associated with the production and utilization of fertilizers and land use Compensated by the low consumption of fossil fuels and the retention of CO 2 during biomass growth
