Chemical utilization of hydrogen from fluctuating energy sources – Catalytic transfer hydrogenation from charged Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier systems

Hydrogenation of the liquid organic hydrogen carrier compound dibenzyltoluene – reaction pathway determination by 1H NMR spectroscopy

“…5 During the hydrogen storage process, the hydrogen-lean LOHC compound is transformed into the hydrogen-rich compound by a catalytic hydrogenation reaction. The hydrogenated compound of the LOHC system can be stored 6 and transported 7 in large quantities with no energy losses over time for a later release of hydrogen and energy on demand, i.e. wherever and whenever energy or hydrogen is most valuable.…”

Insight into the adsorption of a liquid organic hydrogen carrier, perhydro-i-dibenzyltoluene (i = m, o, p), on Pt, Pd and PtPd planar surfaces

“…Generation: some renewable energy sources (RES) are intermittent. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] Cost: the initial cost of setting up RES is high. [11][12][13][14][15] Storage: the most commonly used energy storage medium is batteries; however, with the increasing demand, especially for electric vehicles, mineral sources (such those of Li, which plays an integral role in batteries) are continually being depleted, hence leading to increasing production costs.…”

Automation of the Storing‐In Part of a Hydrogen‐Storage System using Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carriers

“…This paper discusses the automation of the storing-in part of the LOHC storage system introduced in Refs. [31][32][33][34],a nd we try to close the gap between technological research and industrial realization.…”
