Hydrogen Production and Carbon Capture by Gas-Phase Methane Pyrolysis: A Feasibility Study
In order to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas must be replaced by climate-neutral alternatives in the medium and long term. In this regard, hydrogen (H2) is considered as one of the most promising carbon-free energy carriers, since it is already nowadays vastly used in the chemical industry, for instance for refining processes or the production of key ...

Hydrogen as Future Fuel for Gas Engines
Gas engines are providing a wide range of fuel flexibility from burning natural gas and a variety of non- natural gaseous fuels from low British Thermal Unit (BTU) gases as well as gases containing a high hydrogen content. Hydrogen containing gases can be found as by-product from steel (furnace gas) or chemical process, or alternatively hydrogen is produced and blended to natural gas. In the ...

SnO 2 -Nafion ® nanocomposite polymer electrolytes for fuel cell applications
Fuel cells are capable to exploit the combustion of hydrogen to convert chemical energy into electricity. Polymer electrolyte fuel cells based on Nafion membranes are able to work in a relatively low temperature range (70–90ºC) but require operating relative humidity (RH) close to 100%. To develop proton-exchange membranes with adequate performances at low RH, an attractive strategy ...

Hydrogen production from formic acid solution by modified TiO2 and titanate nanotubes in a two-step system under visible light irradiation
Hydrogen gas is one of the most promising renewable energy sources, and the final product of hydrogen combustion is nothing but water. However, it is still a big challenge to produce hydrogen and store it. Many studies have been conducted into produce hydrogen from water using photocatalysts. Z-scheme photocatalysis is a two-photocatalyst system that comprises a hydrogen catalyst and an oxygen ...

Effect of hydrogen enriched air on the performance and emissions of mahua oil fuelled diesel engine
Neat vegetable oils as fuels for diesel engines give rise to engine performance and durability problems due to the differences in some of the properties between vegetable oils and diesel. The objective of the present work was to improve the performance of mahua oil fuelled diesel engine using hydrogen enriched air. Mahua oil was used as the main fuel in a direct injection diesel engine and ...

Hydrogen-diesel dual fuel combustion in a direct injection diesel engine
Hydrogen is expected to be one of the most important fuels in the near future to meet the stringent emission norms. Hence in the present study, the combustion of hydrogen-diesel duel fuelled engine was investigated. Hydrogen was injected in the intake port during the suction stroke and diesel was injected inside the combustion chamber near TDC. The start of injection for hydrogen was maintained ...

Performance evaluation of a hydrogen-ethanol fuelled engine
The work presented in the paper is an attempt to evaluate the performance characteristics of a hydrogen?ethanol dual fuel combination with different percentage substitutions of hydrogen (i.e. 0-80% with an increment of 20% by volume) at three different compression ratios of 7:1, 9:1 and 11:1 with varying equivalence ratios. In the present study, experimental investigations have been carried out ...

Magnesium-nickel hydrogen storage alloys prepared by hydriding combustion synthesis followed by mechanical milling
Recent progress is reviewed in the preparation of highly active magnesium-based hydrogen storage alloys by the combined process of Hydriding Combustion Synthesis (HCS) and Mechanical Milling (MM). The structural transformation of the alloys during MM determined by means of X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and the hydrogen storage properties of the alloys measured by means of ...

Combined fuel cell?gas turbine plant for highly efficient power generation from renewable energy sources
The impact of renewable energy sources on today's energy supply substantiates the importance of hydrogen as an energy carrier. Hydrogen can be directly produced from solar energy and is considered a promising technology for temporary storage of electrical energy from wind turbines and photovoltaic systems. The generation of electrical energy from stored hydrogen requires highly efficient systems ...

Safety assessment of iodine and hydrogen released during a severe accident in a pressurised water reactor
In the case of a severe accident in a nuclear power plant, iodine is considered one of the most important fission products, from the health effect point of view, and hydrogen represents a great risk to the containment integrity. Using the containment spray system, to reduce the amount of iodine released to the environment, may increase the probability of hydrogen combustion by condensing steam. ...

A new Rankine cycle for hydrogen-fired power generation plants and its exergetic efficiency
A novel power generation cycle is proposed in this paper taking hydrogen as fuel and using steam generated by hydrogen firing as working fluid. The progress of the development work and side issues such as the application of hydrogen combustion turbines to environmentally clean fossil fuel power plants for early commercialisation of the system are reviewed. We propose the hydrogen-fired Rankine ...
