This study presents an energy-autonomous ion-exchange technology for feedwater pretreatment in water electrolysis, specifically designed for large-scale green hydrogen production in regions facing chronic freshwater scarcity, with a focus on Central Asia. The core component is a single-stage ion-exchange unit (IOU‑4F) packed with an amphoteric aminocarboxyl ampholyte, AKA‑T, synthesized from a heavy resinous by-product of gas-chemical processing (tar fraction). Utilizing reclaimed industrial wastewater as feedstock simultaneously reduces freshwater withdrawal by 70–85 % and provides a sustainable solution for the disposal of toxic effluents from electroplating, metallurgical, and chemical industries.
To validate the multifunctional selectivity of the ampholyte, a sorption experiment was conducted using a multi-component model solution simulating real industrial wastewater (Cu2+, Fe2+/3+, Zn2+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Cr3+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Sr2+, Zr4+, and As). X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis of the spent sorbent after prolonged contact confirmed the simultaneous uptake of all target species, demonstrating the capacity of AKA‑T for comprehensive cation recovery under highly competitive ionic matrices. Aminocarboxyl chelating sites confer high affinity for heavy metal cations, while amino groups additionally bind anions, ensuring robust sorption stability.
An exergy analysis based on a variational‑canonical formalism demonstrates that the spatial invariance of the exergy flux along the column and minimal exergy destruction guarantee the thermodynamic optimality of the process. The pilot unit achieves a specific energy consumption of 0.067 kWh/m3, which is one to two orders of magnitude lower than conventional membrane-based pretreatment methods. Integration with a photovoltaic (PV) subsystem ensures complete off‑grid operation, resulting in a zero carbon footprint and seasonal energy self‑sufficiency of up to 98.5 % during summer months.
The proposed technology establishes a new class of exergy‑positive systems, wherein environmental remediation of industrial effluents yields a net thermodynamic advantage. This work provides a scientifically grounded framework for the sustainable scale‑up of green hydrogen infrastructure in arid and water‑stressed regions.

ANNOTATION
This work is aimed at a comprehensive solution to the problem of reliable and safe operation of a transport energy system with a high energy concentration based on a universal energy carrier - cryogenic liquid hydrogen.
The article discusses the possibility of using various methods and techniques to assess the reliability of machines and equipment operated in emergency situations and extreme conditions. The obtained results are analyzed.
Currently, the oil and gas complex pays great attention to the development of hydrogen technologies, as well as hydrogen energy in connection with the relevance of the Climate Agenda. In this regard, hydrogen energy facilities are of the greatest interest: cryogenic hydrogen reservoirs, cryogenic hydrogen pipelines, cryogenic oxygen reservoirs and cryogenic oxygen pipelines, as well as cryogenic reservoirs and pipelines for storing process nitrogen gas. An important role for global energy exchange is played by LH2 tankers for transporting cryogenic hydrogen. For example, Australia and Japan built the first LH2 tanker to transport hydrogen from Australia to Japan. In addition, another 85 LH2 tankers are expected to be built.
After transportation, cryogenic hydrogen is stored in cryogenic hydrogen storages, usually also representing cryogenic hydrogen tanks with piping in the form of cryogenic pipelines, as well as cryogenic nitrogen tanks for storing process nitrogen gas. Further, hydrogen is used in road transport, aviation, ship fleet, industry, and energy. The main elements of mobile, stationary and airborne hydrogen storage systems are under critical loads and are in the area of increased study and attention.
In this regard, we considered the functions of changing the main operational characteristics, made proposals on the possibility of predicting the development of accumulated faults and proposals for ensuring safety and extending the life of objects, taking into account the determination of local and integral damage to cryogenic tanks and pipelines.
