Vehicle manufacturers are increasingly seeking sustainable options for their vehicles, with some opting for electric cars and others like Hyundai and Toyota exploring hydrogen-powered vehicles. Hyundai plans to utilize organic waste, including feces, for hydrogen production.
Hyundai aims to develop a program for generating hydrogen.
Hyundai unveiled at the CES, a major tech event, its ambitious hydrogen production program consisting of two main approaches.
Hyundai can produce hydrogen by extracting carbon dioxide from organic waste like food leftovers and animal and human feces in a process called Waste-to-Hydrogen.
The second method, known as Plastic-to-Hydrogen, centers on converting non-recyclable plastics into gas to extract hydrogen.
The two brand strategies are seen as innovative as they utilize waste materials to generate energy.
Hyundai is heavily investing in hydrogen technology.
Hyundai is heavily investing in hydrogen as a sustainable energy source, considering it crucial not just for clean energy but also for the company’s long-term viability. Hyundai is looking at more than just hydrogen-fueled vehicles, which are already on the market.
Hydrogen-powered vehicles like Hyundai Nexo and Toyota Mirai offer a significant advantage by helping to protect the environment.
By absorbing polluted air and using it in the power generation process, these vehicles produce clean drinking water as a side effect, thus enhancing air quality as they travel further distances.
The automotive industry’s innovation showcases its capacity to create effective and imaginative solutions for current environmental issues.
