Enkabeni ye-China, isikhungo sesimanjemanje se-TCWY Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) siwubufakazi bokuzibophezela kwezwe ekukhiqizeni i-hydrogen ephumelelayo neqhubekayo. Idizayinelwe ukucubungula igesi yemvelo engu-500Nm3/h, lesi sikhungo siyisisekelo semizamo yesizwe yokuhlangabezana nesidingo saso esikhulayo se-hydrogen ehlanzekile, ikakhulukazi imboni yamakhemikhali.

Inqubo ye-SMR, eyaziwa ngokungabizi kwayo kanye nokuvuthwa, isebenzisa inala yegesi yemvelo ukuze ikhiqize i-hydrogen emsulwa ngendlela engavamile - efinyelela ku-99.999%. Le ndlela inenzuzo ikakhulukazi eShayina, lapho ingqalasizinda yepayipi legesi yemvelo ekhona iqinisekisa ukunikezwa kokudla okuzinzile nokuthembekile. Ukukhula kobuchwepheshe be-SMR nakho kuyenza ibe ukukhetha okuhle kukho kokubili ukukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen emincane kanye nenkulu, iqondaniswe nezidingo ezihlukene zendawo yezimboni zaseShayina.

Ukukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen ngegesi yemvelo kungumholi owaziwa emhlabeni wonke emakethe ye-hydrogen, futhi iChina iyafana. Njengoba ikleliswe endaweni yesibili ezindleleni zokukhiqiza i-hydrogen yezwe, ukuguqulwa kwegesi yemvelo kunomlando omude osukela ngeminyaka yawo-1970. Ekuqaleni esetshenziselwa ukuhlanganiswa kwe-ammonia, inqubo iguquke kakhulu. Ukuthuthuka kwekhwalithi ekhuthazayo, ukugeleza kwenqubo, kanye nezinhlelo zokulawula, kanye nokwenza kahle kwemishini, akuzange nje kuthuthukise ukwethembeka nokuphepha kokukhiqizwa kwegesi yemvelo ye-hydrogen kodwa kubeke i-China njengendawo ebambe iqhaza elibalulekile ekushintsheni kwamandla omhlaba.

Imboni ye-TCWY SMR iyisibonelo esikhazimulayo sendlela imithombo yamandla evamile engaguqulwa ngayo ibe amavekhtha ahlanzekile wamandla. Ngokugxila ekusebenzeni kahle, ukulinganisa, nokuphepha, lesi sikhungo asihlangabezani nezimfuneko ze-hydrogen zamanje kuphela kodwa futhi sivula indlela yekusasa lapho i-hydrogen idlala indima ebalulekile ekukhipheni ikhabhoni imikhakha ehlukahlukene, okuhlanganisa ezokuthutha, ukukhiqizwa kukagesi, nezinqubo zezimboni.

Njengoba i-China iqhubeka nokutshala i-hydrogen njengesithwali samandla ahlanzekile, isitshalo se-TCWY SMR simele isinyathelo esibalulekile esiya phambili. Ikhombisa ukuzinikela kwezwe ekusungulweni nasekunakekeleni indawo ezungezile, ibeka uphawu lokubonisa ukuthi igesi yemvelo ingasetshenziswa kanjani ukuze kukhiqizwe i-hydrogen yezinga eliphezulu, okusondeza umhlaba ekusaseni lamandla ahlanzekile, nelizinzile.
