據(jù)Splash 3月9日消息，日本川崎重工（KHI）的官員昨日表示，從澳大利亞運(yùn)送液化氫的具有里程碑意義的試點(diǎn)項(xiàng)目證明，新的海運(yùn)貿(mào)易在技術(shù)上是可行的。

今年早些時(shí)候，KHI建造的世界上第一艘液化氫運(yùn)輸船Suiso Frontier將一批從澳大利亞褐煤中提取的氫氣運(yùn)往日本，并于上月底抵達(dá)神戶(hù)。

KHI執(zhí)行官M(fèi)otohiko Nishimura告訴記者：“從生產(chǎn)、運(yùn)輸?shù)窖b載和儲(chǔ)存的演示證明，已經(jīng)為未來(lái)像液化天然氣一樣使用氫氣作為能源奠定了技術(shù)基礎(chǔ)。”

Nishimura說(shuō)：“能夠安全運(yùn)行的設(shè)備和設(shè)施對(duì)清潔能源行業(yè)來(lái)說(shuō)，也是一項(xiàng)改變游戲規(guī)則的技術(shù)。”

KHI表示，它的目標(biāo)是很快建造一個(gè)更大的氫氣容器。

Kawasaki Heavy readies larger hydrogen carrier designs

Officials from Japan’s Kawasaki Heavy Industries (KHI) said yesterday a landmark pilot project to ship liquefied hydrogen from Australia had proven that the new seaborne trade is technically feasible.

Earlier this year, the KHI-built Suiso Frontier (pictured), the world’s first liquefied hydrogen carrier, took a cargo of hydrogen created from brown coal in Australia to Japan, arriving in Kobe late last month.

“The demonstration covered from production and transport to loading and storage proved that the technological foundations have been laid for the future use of hydrogen as an energy source in the same way as liquefied natural gas,” Motohiko Nishimura, KHI’s executive officer, told reporters.

“Equipment and facilities that can be operated safely is also a game-changing technology for the clean energy business,” Nishimura said.

KHI said it aims to build a much larger hydrogen vessel soon.
