Increasing the Energy Efficiency of Gas Boosters for Hydrogen Storage and for Refueling Stations

Alfred Rufer

A new electrically driven gas booster is described as an alternative to the classical air-driven gas boosters known for their poor energetic efficiency. These boosters are used in small scale Hydrogen storage facilities and in refueling stations for Hydrog ...

Characterising Structure and Stability of Materials using Machine Learning

Andrea Anelli

The search of novel materials using in-silico high-throughput screening is emerging as a fundamental step in the pipeline of materials discovery, but its low yields in terms of synthesisable structures limit its effectiveness. In order to isolate configura ...

The valorization of carbon dioxide and its transformation into useful chemicals is essential as mankind consumes more and more fossil fuels, thus producing equivalent wastes. The storage of hydrogen, a promising energy carrier, is also of great interest in ...

EPFL2018

Development of technologies using hydrogen as an energy carrier instead of fossil fuels is strongly required today. Especially, new, reversible, sustainable hydrogen storage technologies have received increasing attention. Formic acid (FA) and methanol (CH ...
