Landscape of Hydrogen Carriers
For large scale global H2 supply chain, methylcyclohexane (MCH) as H2 carrier anddirect use of ammonia (NH3) are proven, realistic solution now, while Liquified H2and NH3 with dehydrogenation would co-exist after 2030s.

Way of Hydrogen Ocean Transportation- LOHC-MCH : Technology at a Glance

Chiyoda’s LOHC-MCH (SPERA HydrogenTM) technology uses MCH as the hydrogencarrier in a LOHC (*) system, enabling the safe, efficient and commercially viable
storage and transportation of hydrogen on a global scale.

1. Easy to Handle: SPERA Hydrogen, a stableliquid at ambient temperature and pressure, isas easy to handle as petroleum, and suitable
for long term storage and long distancetransportation.
2. Existing Infrastructure: Possible to repurpose,utilize existing petroleum transportation andstorage facility (tanks, tanker, pipeline, tanklorry, etc.), standard and regulation, tominimize investment for H2 infrastructure.
3. Safe with Lower risk: Safe transportation andstorage that is equivalent level to petroleum
products, that has already been managed in
the society for long term.
4. Circular System: Toluene is recovered after
Dehydrogenation and reused as hydrogen
carrier for sustainable H2 supply chain.
