"Nitrogen fertiliser giant #Nutrien has shelved plans for a 1.2 million tonnes-a-year blue ammonia plant at its complex in Geismar, #Louisiana."
#BlueHydrogen is #hydrogen produced from fossil gas with a process of steam #methane reforming, where natural gas is mixed with very hot steam and a catalyst. Nutrien wants to do this with #CCS, so they can call it "clean".

🇳🇱 Apparently they are going to make blue hydrogen instead of grey hydrogen in Rotterdam.
The captured CO2 is going to the Porthos project. That project is going to pump 2,5 million ton CO2 per year down into an old gas field. Quite a lot.
What do we think of that? Blue is better than grey, but green would have been even better.

"Together with Mark Jacobson, an atmospheric scientist at Stanford University, Howarth set out to document the full emissions picture arising from blue hydrogen production."
"Blue hydrogen is so dirty, in fact, that it’s worse for the climate than burning natural gas for heat in the first place, the researchers found."
