In the energy transition, hydrogen will be one of the solutions to reduce CO2 emissions to net zero. Hydrogen (H2) is the lightest and most abundant element on Earth, the behaviour is very similar to that of natural gas. Hydrogen has the highest energy density per unit weight, more than three times that of natural gas.
The BBA Pumps innovation team has taken an impressive step in the use of mobile hydrogen pumps, the first mobile pumps with hydrogen drive are ready for production. We will start with hydrogen combustion engines for our dry self-priming BA pumps. The next step in the hydrogen development process will be mobile pumps with a fuel cell.
The first model is a BA150KS D285 sewage pump. The centrifugal pump and vacuum system are completely standard. For the drive we use a four-cylinder 2.2-liter hydrogen combustion engine with a power output of 25 kW. The sound attenuated canopy is fitted with special features for safety compliance.
A second hydrogen pump set is the BA180E D328 multi-use pump. Here we will also utilize a standard solids handling centrifugal pump from the BA series. For the drive we use a larger H2 hydrogen combustion engine with a maximum power output of 67 kW. The M12-29 canopy is also provided with features to ensure safety working safety.
The first BBA Pumps hydrogen combustion unit will soon be running in the field for a large contractor at the forefront of zero emissions construction equipment.
Stay tuned for the next pump innovation!
