As it is proposed by Cardu and Baica (1999), it is assumed that the ecological efficiency has the following form:

n ε ¼ ½Šc Á φηðÞÁ, indicador ψðÞindicador

Constant “c” and the exponent “n” are going to be calculated by the boundary conditions. The Pollutant Indicator is used to quantify the environmental impact of a technology. Its unit is kgCO2(eq)/kgH2. By following the concepts of the authors, it is proposed that φ(η, indicator)isas follows: η φ ¼ ÀÁsystem η þ system indicator where ηsystem is the efficiency of the hydrogen production system. In order to reduce the range of values and approximate the efficiencyÀ curves of various technologies, the authors propose using function ψ indicator )as ψ ¼ lnðÞK À indicator . As the logarithm transforms a high number into a lower number, the distance between extreme points is attenuated. For example, ln 10 ¼ 2.3 and ln 100 ¼ 4.6. Therefore, an interval of [10–100] became [2.3–4.6]. In order to validate the equation, three boundary conditions are adopted, which are different from those defined by Cardu and Baica and with the indicator in kgCO2(eq)/kgH2: Condition 1. If the indicator ¼ 0, ε ¼ 1 for any η. ¼ = ε ¼ η Condition 2. If the indicator 50 kgCO2eqðÞkgH2, 0 for any . This indi- cator corresponds to the impact of Lignite (coal with high carbon content).

Condition 3. In this case, the hydroelectric plant was adopted because the ecological efficiency of this hydrogen production process has already been previously calculated by Braga (2010), Siqueira and Silveira (2011), which corresponds to 0.99. It is obtained the indicator ¼ 0.34 kgCO2(eq)/kgH2 and η ¼ 0:78 (value calculated for the hydrogen production process with electricity from a hydroelectric power plant). If:

ψ ¼ lnðÞK À indicator

Thus, through condition 2 and formulation 1, it is obtained:

ψ ¼ lnðÞ 51 À indicator consequently: "# η n ε ¼ c Á ÀÁsystem Á lnðÞ 51 À indicator η þ system indicator

From condition 1, it is found that 1 ¼ ½Šc Á lnðÞ 51 n Then c ¼ 0.25 From condition 3, it is found that n ¼ 0.023 for ε ¼ 0:99n and the ecological efficiency equation for hydrogen production process is written as:

"#: η 0 023 ε ¼ 0:25 Á ÀÁsystem Á lnðÞ 51 À indicator η þ system indicator where: Indicator: [kgCO2(eq)/kgH2]
