This startup is producing cleaner asphalt. As?

Called Modern Hydrogen, a startup based in Seattle, United States of America, is producing cleaner asphalt through the decarbonization of natural gas.

Through new technologies, the Modern Hydrogen you are managing to produce cleaner hydrogen, which in turn is creating a useful by-product: solid carbon that can be used to produce asphalt materials no oil.
Despite emitting harmful carbon dioxide when it is burned, natural gas is a cleaner fuel than oil.
Conforms to explanationcustomers place the Modern Hydrogen system, which looks like a large box, in the location where they normally use natural gas.
First, the system separates the gas into solid carbon and clean hydrogen. The customer then uses this emission-free hydrogen fuel. A portion of this fuel also serves to power the system.

Modern Hydrogen conducts a second activity that consists of selling the remaining carbon to asphalt manufacturers. Using carbon, instead of the usual oil, makes asphalt stronger, cheaper and more environmentally friendly.

There is a market worth 100 billion dollars a year that wants to buy dissolved carbon and put it in the asphalt, which helps the entire economy of this decarbonization game.

Explained Tony Pan, executive director of Modern Hydrogen.
In turn, Chris Kroeker, manager of the business development segment at NW Naturalsaid that "decarbonization is not free, so we are always looking for the least expensive and least risky way to do it."

This technology is probably a medium to low expense, and that's what we're trying to figure out with it.

Startup aims to be a global company
Modern Hydrogen currently has systems in six US states and Canada. The startup's executive director says it is trying to expand to Japan, with globalization on the cards.
Much of the company's testing was carried out in milder climates. However, Modern Hydrogen is already working with National Grid at a gas facility on Long Island, New York, in the first test in a colder climate.
If it goes well, it will open the company to a wider range of customers. After all, New York produces almost 19 million tons of asphalt per year.
