Storage of Renewable Energy by Reduction of CO2 with Hydrogen

Philippe Mauron, Shunsuke Kato, Elsa Callini, Marco Roman Holzer, Jianmei Huang

The main difference between the past energy economy during the industrialization period which was mainly based on mining of fossil fuels, e.g. coal, oil and methane and the future energy economy based on renewable energy is the requirement for storage of t ...

Redox flow battery and indirect water electrolysis

Véronique Amstutz

The progressive integration of renewable energy sources such as wind turbines and photovoltaic pannels in the current electrical network, and the rise of the electrical mobility, provoke a change of paradigm in the sector of energy management. The increasi ...

CO Methanation for Synthetic Natural Gas Production

Tilman J. Schildhauer

Energy from woody biomass could supplement renewable energy production towards the replacement of fossil fuels. A multi-stage process involving gasification of wood and then catalytic transformation of the producer gas to synthetic natural gas (SNG) repres ...

Direct Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation into Formic Acid in Acidic Media

Séverine Joëlle Moret

A major challenge in the face of increasing global energy demand is the development of alternative environmentally friendly and renewable energy resources. Hydrogen is an excellent energy carrier, but has drawbacks in storage density and is dangerous to ha ...

Quantum fluctuations and isotope effects in ab initio descriptions of water

Michele Ceriotti, Lu Wang

Isotope substitution is extensively used to investigate the microscopic behavior of hydrogen bonded systems such as liquid water. The changes in structure and stability of these systems upon isotope substitution arise entirely from the quantum mechanical n ...

Sorption enhanced CO2 methanation

Davide Ferri, Noris André Gallandat, Elsa Callini, Rolf Erni

The transformation from the fatuous consumption of fossil energy towards a sustainable energy circle is most easily marketable by not changing the underlying energy carrier but generating it from renewable energy. Hydrocarbons can be principally produced f ...

Producing synthetic natural gas from microalgae via supercritical water gasification: A techno-economic sensitivity analysis

Christian Ludwig, Frédéric Vogel, Martin Brandenberger

A techno-economic sensitivity analysis of the production of synthetic natural gas (SNG) via catalytic supercritical water gasification (SCWG) of microalgae produced in raceway ponds (RP), tubular-, or flat-panel-airlift photobioreactors (FPA-PBR) has been ...

Amorphous Molybdenum Sulfide Films as Hydrogen Evolution Catalysts in Water

Daniel Andreas Merki

Molecular hydrogen is a promising candidate to replace fossil fuels as the energy carrier. Hydrogen does not exist in its molecular form on earth and must therefore be generated, starting from hydrogen-rich compounds. Water would be a renewable resource fo ...

Hydrogen: the future energy carrier

Since the beginning of the twenty-first century the limitations of the fossil age with regard to the continuing growth of energy demand, the peaking mining rate of oil, the growing impact of CO2 emissions on the environment and the dependency of the econom ...

Analysis and comparison of hydrogen routes for automotive use

Peter Loveday

The goal of this project would be to analyze and compare systematically the different existing and emerging processes producing hydrogen from fossil and renewable resources. As the perspective would be the replacement of fossil fuels with hydrogen in the t ...
