Hydrogen (H2) has raised considerable interest as a future energy carrier in its application to fuel cell driven vehicles, as it is absolutely free of polluting emissions. However, it is flammable in air and difficult to contain, for which reason innovativ ...
This paper addresses a methodology for the optimal conceptual design of thermochemical fuel production processes from biomass. A decomposed modelling approach with separate energy-flow, energy-integration and economic models are coupled with a multi-object ...
Governments around the world have adopted ambitious targets to increase the share of renewable energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. They pursue a variety of policy approaches to achieve these targets. It has been a popular theme for contributions in ...
The main obstacles in the widespread use of hydrogen as energetic alternative to fossil fuels are storage problems intrinsically linked to its extremely light and explosive nature. Since no ideal storage systems currently exist, reversible fixation of hydr ...
The investigation of the thermochemical field around planetary reentry capsules, and their experimental scaled models is made by coupling aerothermodynamic simulation of the corresponding flow field to a library of chemical kinetics of the specific atmosph ...

The goal of this project would be to study the thermochemical production of hydrogen by using woody biomass as a raw material. The thermo-economic performance of the process will be evaluated and an optimisation will be performed to define the optimal syst ...
Maintaining a fuel cell (FC) system in correct operating conditions when subjected to fast load changes requires good system control. The best results are typically achieved using model-based control strategies. This paper elaborates a control-oriented pro ...
The present invention relates to a method of producing hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide in a catalytic reaction from formic acid, said reaction being conducted in an aqueous solution over a wide temperature range and already at room temperature (25 DEG C). ...
In this project we develop hydrogen sensors based on nanoscaled discontinuities (nanogaps) in palladium (Pb). These nanogaps reversibly close and open upon hydrogen/air cycling due to an increased lattice constant in the hydrated state. Therewith, an elect ...
Hydrogen prodn. using earth abundant metals is one of the important challenges facing an energy economy based upon solar fuels. Schemes that incorporate the photo-oxidn. of water must also include schemes for efficiently converting released protons and ele ...
