“…10.000 Wh for a liter of diesel). [2][3][4] One possible way to overcome these challenges is to store hydrogen chemically in an organic compound that is liquid under ambient conditions. Among the different concepts of chemical energy storage, the use of so-called liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs) is particularly attractive as no extra gas component is necessary (in contrast, e.g., to methanol a) C.

“…In that context, for fast developing and industrialised economies, energy is on high demand and this calls for an uninterrupted, available and affordable energy supply which will stand the test of time. Achieving this level of sustainable energy security and economic performance with current technologies has yielded little or no result in terms of balancing CO 2 emission abatement and the economic growth (Sartbaeva et al, 2008). Therefore the use of affordable technology which will be readily available and can provide cheaper and cleaner source of energy can be adapted to meet these challenges.…”
Nanostructured hybrid materials have the solution to facilitate renewable energy to cover up for anticipated energy gap and related ecological problems. In this work the design of a nano structured ceramic membrane is carried out using ceramic nanoparticles for application in energy security challenges. However the innovation is that a membrane porous network is modified through its immersion in silica based solution. This process helps to pull the gas of interest towards the membrane in this case CO 2 and allows the other gases to pass through. However the development of this hybrid ceramic gas separation membrane in this study elaborates on the recovery of hydrogen from fuel reforming unit for use in fuel cell applications. A detailed production and purification of hydrogen in a fuel processor using the advanced ceramic membrane is presented. A gaseous mixture of hydrogen and carbon dioxide is produced following fuel on-board reforming. To enhance the efficiency of the fuel cell, a clean hydrogen using membranes with a high permeability and selectivity for H 2 over N 2 , CO 2 such that H 2 will permeate with high-purity. Accordingly, results obtained show an appreciable high flow rate of 5.045 l/min and 3.71 separation factor of hydrogen gas to CO 2 at relatively low pressure when compared to the other gases. Further confirmation of the dominance of Knudsen and surface flow mechanism in the entire experiments is also presented.
“…It is inevitable for our human being to cut down the usage of fossil fuels and replace these nonrenewable resources with other clean, renewable energy. Hydrogen is regarded as an ideal energy carrier, which has several advantages including its high energy density, together with the environmental benign nature [1,2]. Recently, different methods have been developed and implemented to produce hydrogen [3][4][5][6][7].…”
Abstract-Catalytic hydrolytic reaction of ammonia borane (AB) is regarded as safe and efficient way to produce hydrogen. However, the development of heterogeneous catalysts with both high catalytic performance and low cost for this hydrolytic reaction is still a great challenge. In this work, we have developed a novel catalyst for the hydrolysis of ammonia borane, Ca 0.5 Mg 0.5 Co 2 O 4 nanosheets composed of nanoparticles, which was characterized by X-ray powder diffractometer, field emission scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and volumetric analyzer. In the AB hydrolysis, the hydrogen production rate will increase as the increase the NaOH dosage. At NaOH dosage of 1.6 g, the turnover frequency is 4.8 mol hydrogen min -1 mol cat -1 . It is also found that a high catalyst dosage and a high reaction temperature are favorable for the fast hydrogen release from AB solution.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
