Hydrogen opponents often point to carbon footprint of SMR H2 as a problem. In fact 50% of SMR H2 comes from splitting the steam molecule. 50% of CO2 comes from burning natural gas for process heat. What if a carbon neutral non food feedstock such as algae biomass was used instead of nat gas?

@icanbob If you actually read the article, it claims “water electrolysis produces only 4 % of hydrogen”. In fact, I don’t remember there’s anything like a “steam molecule” in my chemistry books – rather it’s the gaseous state of water
