  Parametric Analysis and Optimization of Nuclear Assisted Electrolytic Hydrogen Production System for On-site Applications

  By Rupsha Bhattacharyya, Sachin Kamath

  Abstract: The use of compact water electrolyser units as an alternative source of hydrogen to the high pressure hydrogen cylinder banks used at present in nuclear and thermal power reactors for turbo-generator rotor cooling applications has been analysed in this work. Financial metrics have been used for assessment of the technology substitution in the nuclear industry in India, primarily by comparing the levelised costs of onsite hydrogen generation in small generators …

  Comparative analysis of low and high pressure water electrolysis using nuclear waste heat for sustainable hydrogen production in India

  By Rupsha Bhattacharyya, Sandeep K C, Sachin Kamath, Krunal Mistry

  Abstract: Hydrogen has been proposed as a clean and sustainable vector of the decarbonized energy system of the near future. Generation of hydrogen gas from a relatively easily available resource like water through low temperature water electrolysis is a simple, technologically mature alternative for realizing the vision of hydrogen economy. This work examines the techno-economic feasibility aspects of a water electrolysis based hydrogen production plant when coupled with typical nuclear power …
