Abstract: The invention is a process and apparatus for producing bioethanol without CO2 emissions by anaerobic fermentation of a synthesis gas, produced by the thermal conversion at high temperature of a feed consisting of municipal solid waste (MSW), agricultural waste or derivatives thereof such as refuse derived fuel (RED) or even industrial waste such as non-recyclable plastic waste or a combination thereof, to which extra hydrogen is added through electrolysis so as to balance the H2/CO ratio, thus maximizing the conversion of the organic components in the fermentation step so as to prevent any emission of CO2 into the atmosphere.

Abstract: A hydrocarbon cracking process for producing gaseous hydrogen and solid carbon in a medium consisting of a pool of molten metals and/or salts, characterized in that the heat required for the cracking reaction is supplied to said molten pool by circulating an electric current directly in said molten pool obtained by applying an electric field supplied by electrodes immersed in said molten pool.

Abstract: A method for hydrogen production starting from a hydrocarbon feed, including a step of reacting the hydrocarbon feed with water steam to obtain a gas stream including hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide (syngas), heat being provided to the step of reacting the hydrocarbon feed with water steam, the heat being obtained by electrically powered sources; and including removing carbon dioxide from the gas stream. The embodiments further relate to a plant for hydrogen production starting from a hydrocarbon feed, including an electrically powered steam reformer and at least one CO2 capture system, arranged downstream the electrically powered steam reformer.
