Chemical Production for Agriculture and Industry
It is all around us…
…but we are not using it well!
“It” is Hydrogen, which may be used in multiple ways to improve what we are already doing in agriculture, transportation, construction, and LIFE. We just need to resolve a few pesky problems, first.
I believe in the future of Hydrogen.
Not because of the hype. But because of the science. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. It packs a huge amount of energy. It can solve important issues facing rural communities. But the adoption of hydrogen has been stalled for several reasons.
I am exploring the opportunity to generate what I call Hiawatha Hydrogen. I intend to produce it using a new technology just now emerging from laboratories. Hydrogen is “Product A” in my roadmap, and may be followed by related products B, C, D, etc.
My roadmap is:
Every adventure is a collection of steps
- Find a location
- Erect a building
- Create a market (find buyers) for an initial product, “A”
- Install a pilot production line
- Prove the economics of production
- Scale the process
- Repeat steps 3 – 6
- Duplicate the final plant at additional locations, as demand dictates
- Repeat steps 3 – 6, 7, 8 with related products B, C, and D
- Along the path, employ many folks and help define new careers.
There are many difficulties ahead. Steps 3 and 5, in particular. And yet… I am optimistic that we can build something in Hiawatha that will contribute to positive change. I’m committed to this. I hope that all that read this will commit, too.
