MedHySol: Future federator project of massive production of solar hydrogen

An alternative cobalt oxide-supported platinum catalyst for efficient hydrolysis of sodium borohydride

“…In light of these problems that are associated with the current energy crisis, such as the increasing price of oil and the emission of greenhouse gases, hydrogen is today regarded as a clean energy source and strategic substitute for upcoming decades. 2 Hydrogen can be produced by either watersplitting (electrolysis) by electrochemical photolysis [3][4][5][6][7] or in a microbial and biological reaction of suitable hydrogencontaining materials. [8][9][10] Hydrogen can also be stored in tanks in compressed or liquefied form, 11 adsorbed on activated carbon, 12,13 or carbon nanotubes, 12,14 hydrogen-absorbing alloys, 15,16 and metal-organic frameworks, 17 but the volumetric and gravimetric efficiencies of these methods are still too low to make them practically feasible.…”

GIS-based analysis of hydrogen production from geothermal electricity using CO2 as working fluid in Algeria

“…It is situated in the south of Algeria around 531 km away from the capital Algiers, with a total power capacity of 150 MW. The plant combines a 25 MW parabolic trough concentrating solar power array, covering an area of over 180,000 m 2 , in conjunction with a 125 MW combined cycle gas turbine plant [24]. The plant contributes to around 1% of Algeria's total installed power capacity (Fig.…”

An Integrated Approach to State Decision-Making in Upstream Hydrocarbon Operations With Application to Lebanon

“…With Lebanon's case in mind, where natural gas is most likely to be discovered, the following natural gas usages in different countries are reviewed. Table I summarizes the uses of natural gas in a number of producing countries: Turkey [25], Algeria [26], the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) [27], and China [28], [29]. Table I indicates that power generation is the most common end use of natural gas, found in all four countries.…”
