Green and cheap H2, CO, and hydrocarbons. July 14.2025 Author: David Judbarovski,systems engineering, principle inventor, retired. judbarovski.blogspot.com, judbarovski@gmail.com. Abstract Simplified technology promises USD 161/ton H2, USD 11.5 /ton CO, and hydrocarbons of USD 6 / bbl. They are OPEX, and green and in order of magnitude cheaper than prices of fossil fuels. (a) CO2 [1] + H2 = CO + H20 + 3 kJ negligible. Here everywhere CO2 is circular and free. A cost of H2O is negligible. If Q served for a cost, Q(CO) * 28 = Q(H) * 2, so Q(CO) = Q(H) / 14. (b) [2] CO + 1.5 H2O = CO2 + 1.5 H2 + 0.25 O2(air) + 146 kJ. 146 kJ = 146 * 4/ 3.6 [3] = USD 161.0. 1.5 * 2 * Q(H) - 161 = Q(CO) * 28 = 2 Q(H). So Q(H) = USD 161 / ton H2. and CO = Q(H)/14 = USD 11.5 /ton CO. CO2 + 3 H2 = CH2 (hydrocarbons) + 2 H2O - 240 kJ. 240,000 kJ * 0.3 (efficiency) * 0.03 (tariffs) / 3.6 = USD 600 heat into electricity can be sold and drastically diminish OPEX cost of CH2. Really, Q(CH2) * 14 = Q(CO2) * 44 + 3 * 2 * Q(H) - USD 600 = 5 * 44 + 6 * 161 - 600 = USD 586, or 42/ ton CH2.
