Hydrogen and hydrogen-derived fuels through methane decomposition of natural gas – GHG emissions and costs

Hydrogen can be produced from the decomposition of methane (also called pyrolysis). Many studies assume that this process emits few greenhouse gas (GHG) because the reaction from methane to hydrogen yields only solid carbon and no CO2. This paper assesses the life-cycle GHG emissions and the leveliz...
