3D Printed Nickel Catalysts for Hydrogen Electrolyziers

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
25 Aug, 2022, 5:30 am

Water electrolysis is an effective method for producing hydrogen using renewable sources of energy. The development of cost-effective electrocatalysts for efficient and durable hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline media is of vital importance to meet the increasing demand of hydrogen. The platinum group metals exhibit excellent activity in hydrogen evolution reaction, but their high cost hinders their widespread application. Recently, a research team led by Prof Tang Zhiyong and Associate Professor Zhang Jie from the Shanghai Advanced Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has proposed a novel photo-curing 3D-printing method to directly manufacture structured nickel-based electrocatalysts with unique gluten-like cubic structure and strong catalyst-substrate interaction.

The photo-curing 3D printing has a much lower manufacturing cost than that of the selective laser melting 3D printing, and much higher degree of freedom and printing accuracy than that of direct ink writing 3D printing. Based on this technology, the researchers optimized printing paste composition and post-treatment process. The resultant electrode surface exhibits gluten-like cubic structure, where Ti exists in amorphous state with strong interaction with Ni, leading to increased active sites and improved electrolytic properties.

The tailored nickel-based electrode exhibits excellent durability and a remarkable low overpotential, surpassing the commercial Pt/C catalyst and most of the state-of-the-art electrocatalysts. Density functional theory calculations further reveal that the Ti doping decreases water dissociation energy barrier and hydrogen energy barrier, thus enhancing the hydrogen evolution reaction.

This work provides a novel strategy to precisely prepare the structured noble-metal-free catalysts with enhanced activity in alkaline water electrolysis. Moreover, the developed photo-curable 3D printing method provides an alternative option for manufacturing low-cost electrocatalysts with complex 3D architecture.

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
25 Aug, 2022, 5:30 am

Whitby announced that the buildings have arrived for new Hydrogen Experience Centre. This structure is set to be established in Whitby, in the heart of Ellesmere Port, where wit has proposed to set up the UK’s Hydrogen Village programme from 2025. On the Hydrogen Experience Centre site’s reception and office areas provide space for public to learn about the hydrogen heating journey. And there’ll also be a room displaying examples of the gas appliances and technologies that would be available in a world with hydrogen heating, including state-of-the-art hydrogen-ready boilers.

The centre will have some similarities to a Hydrogen Homes demonstration centre which opened in the North East of England last year. Those Hydrogen Homes, located in Gateshead, are two semi-detached show homes that were constructed by Cadent and partners, and display a variety of gas-fuelled appliances, from boilers, to fires and metres, all running on 100% hydrogen.

Similar to the hydrogen homes, the establishment of the Hydrogen Experience Centre and the Hydrogen Village programme itself is expected to help increase knowledge of the need to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from heating, and the part that hydrogen can play in this.

Iberdrola to Build Hydrogen Plant at Felixtowe

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
25 Aug, 2022, 5:30 am

The Iberdrola group is planning to build a large green hydrogen plant at the port of Felixtowe in England which, with an investment of EUR 170 million, will contribute to the decarbonisation of the largest freight port in the United Kingdom.The facility, which will be operational in 2026, will, in a first phase, have the capacity to produce 14,000 tonnes per year of renewable hydrogen, which can be doubled in the future.

The plant will supply hydrogen to vehicles and machinery used by the port and will be capable of fuelling up to 1,300 green hydrogen trucks. It will also be used to provide clean fuel for trains transporting goods to the port.It will also have the potential to be used for the production of green ammonia or ethanol, which could provide clean fuels for shipping and create opportunities for export to other international markets.

The project to be developed by ScottishPower together with Hutchison Ports is expected to be located on brownfield land within the port, similar in size to a football pitch.The green hydrogen will be produced through an electrolyser that splits water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity from renewable sources. The port of Felixtowe is located in the vicinity of the offshore wind farms that Iberdrola is developing in British North Sea waters.

Iberdrola group is currently promoting the main green hydrogen projects in the United Kingdom, to which the plant at the port of Felixtowe has now been added. In partnership with Storegga, the company will develop a project in Comarty, north of Inverness, which will enable the decarbonisation of distillery heating processes. In the first phase, which will come on stream from 2024, it will produce up to 4,000 tonnes per year, with the potential to expand to a total of 20,000 tonnes in the future.In addition, Iberdrola will install a green hydrogen plant at its Whitelee wind farm outside Glasgow, capable of generating 3,000 tonnes of H2 per year, which will come on stream in 2023 and will be able to supply enough emission-free hydrogen to power up to 550 buses a day to and from Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Published on :
25 Aug, 2022, 5:30 am

Jenbach Austria based INNIO & Pinedale Wyoming based Raven SR have announced Raven SR’s plans to use INNIO’s Jenbacher engines of 60 Hz with a Ready for H2 option to produce renewable energy. The energy system will power and heat Raven SR’s S Series hydrogen production facility at a sanitary landfill in Richmond in California.

At the site, landfill gas will be the primary fuel to provide power for the non-combustion process that converts waste to hydrogen. The hydrogen product will be resold to power fuel cells in heavy-duty trucks. The Raven SR process will also provide a residual fuel containing residual green hydrogen from the concentration process to supplement the LFG to fuel the Jenbacher Ready-for-H2 engines to generate renewable power in a continuous loop.

The collaboration with Raven’s technology offers a strong renewable hydrogen alternative to electrolysis, using less electricity and no need for fresh water. INNIO’s Jenbacher engines will allow the Raven facility to generate a significant amount of their own electricity, reducing demand on California’s electrical grid.

Raven SR plans to bring its S-Series online in the first quarter of 2023 at the Republic Services West Contra Costa Sanitary Landfill in Richmond, California. This project will initially process up to 99.9 tons of organic waste per day and produce up to 2,000 metric tons per year of hydrogen.

New Faster Charging Hydrogen Fuel Cell Developed

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
25 Aug, 2022, 5:30 am

Researchers from the University of Technology Sydney and Queensland University of Technology have developed a new method to improve solid-state hydrogen fuel cell charging times. Hydrogen is gaining significant attention as an efficient way to store 'green energy' from renewables such as wind and solar. Compressed gas is the most common form of hydrogen storage however it can also be stored in a liquid or solid state.

However, a problem with metal hydride for hydrogen energy storage has been its low thermal conductivity, which leads to slow charging and discharging times. To address this, the researchers developed a new method to improve solid-state hydrogen charging and discharging times. The study: Design optimization of a magnesium-based metal hydride hydrogen energy storage system, was recently published in the journal Scientific Reports. The researchers developed a semi-cylindrical coil as an internal heat exchanger, which significantly improved heat transfer performance. The hydrogen charging time was reduced by 59% when using the new semi-cylindrical coil compared to a traditional helical coil heat exchanger.

They are now working on the numerical simulation of the hydrogen desorption process, and continuing to improve absorption times. The semi-cylindrical coil heat exchanger will be further developed for this purpose.

Finally, the researchers aim to develop a new design for hydrogen energy storage, which will combine other types of heat exchangers. They hope to also work with industry partners to investigate real tank performance based on the new heat exchanger.

University of Technology Sydney’s Dr Saidul Islamsaid solid “Hydrogen storage, and in particular metal hydride, is attracting interest because it is safer, more compact, and lower cost than compressed gas or liquid, and it can reversibly absorb and release hydrogen. Metal hydride hydrogen storage technology is ideal for onsite hydrogen production from renewable electrolysis. It can store the hydrogen for extended periods and once needed, it can be converted as gas or a form of thermal or electric energy when converted through a fuel cell. Applications include hydrogen compressors, rechargeable batteries, heat pumps and heat storage, isotope separation and hydrogen purification. It can also be used to store hydrogen in space, to be used in satellites and other 'green' space technology.”

First author Puchanee Larpruenrudee, a PhD candidate in the UTS School of Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering, said faster heat removal from the solid fuel cell results in faster charging times. He said “Several internal heat exchangers have been designed for use with metal hydride hydrogen storage. These include straight tubes, helical coil or spiral tubes, U-shape tubes, and fins. Using a helical coil significantly improves heat and mass transfer inside the storage. This is due to the secondary circulation and having more surface area for heat removal from the metal hydride powder to the cooling fluid. Our study further developed a helical coil to increase heat transfer performance."

TVS Motors Files Patents for Hydrogen Scooter iQube

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
25 Aug, 2022, 5:30 am

India’s leading 2 wheelher manufacturer TVS Motors has filed patents for the iQube, an electric scooter that would use a hydrogen fuel cell to generate electricity. The initial patent images of the TVS' hydrogen scooter suggest that it stores the hydrogen in two canisters placed inside the front apron, clamped to the front downtube of the frame. This placement is likely done to make these canisters easily detachable for refuelling. These units are attached to the pipework, and there is also a filler nozzle located near the headlight of the bike.

Hydrogen and oxygen gases are supplied into either ends of the cell and there is an electrode at either end of the cell, a cathode receives oxygen and an anode receives hydrogen. Between the two electrodes is a membrane which allows only positively-charged hydrogen ions protons to pass through it, which means the remaining electrons in the anode can only reach the cathode via an external circuit. This creates the flow of electricity, and when the electrons reach the cathode they combine with the protons and oxygen to create water.

In the case of a vehicle, the only thing expelled from the fuel cell is the aforementioned water.

Eindelijk! Alpine onderzoekt waterstof voor F1 power units
Dylan Smit - Gisteren om 11:19

Het Franse team kijkt al verder dan de power unit regels van 2026. Volgens CEO Laurent Rossi is het niet synthetische e-fuels, maar waterstof dat de toekomst heeft. De ultra-schone power units moeten in 2031 hun intrede gaan doen.

Zelfs na het goedkeuren van de 'groenere' power units voor 2026 zit de Formule 1 nog altijd in een spagaat. Aan de ene kant wil de sport de beleving en het spektakel van weleer behouden, maar aan de andere kant moet er steeds meer rekening gehouden worden met de ecologische impact van racen op topniveau. Fabrikanten, aandeelhouders en sponsors (met uitzondering van Aramco) zien nou eenmaal graag dat de Formule 1 z'n beste beentje voor zet.

Eindelijk! Alpine onderzoekt waterstof voor F1 power units

2026 en verder
Op ecologisch gebied loopt de F1 echter al geruime tijd achter. Zo werd de al jaren verkrijgbare E10 brandstof pas dit seizoen ingevoerd. De turbo-hybride power units draaien bovendien alweer mee sinds 2014. Echt geavanceerd kun je ze eigenlijk niet meer noemen.

Met de nieuwe regels voor de periode 2026-2030 hoopt de FIA de schade in te halen door het elektrische vermogen te verhogen en volledig synthetische brandstoffen te introduceren. Wat er na het in de ogen van veel overheden magische transitiejaar moet gaan gebeuren is echter nog niet bekend. Een overstap naar een volledige elektrische aandrijflijn is immers zelfmoord: daar hebben we de Formule E namelijk al voor.

Formule E heeft de elektrische niche al geruime tijd bezet.

Veel vliegen in één klap
Alpine F1 CEO Laurent Rossi is ook niet overtuigd van de mogelijkheid van een elektrische revolutie binnen de F1. De logische volgende stap na e-fuels is volgens de Fransoos het inzetten van waterstof als brandstof voor de verbrandingsmotoren.

"Ik denk niet dat de volledige elektrische optie er klaar voor is. Dat is misschien zo over 15 jaar, maar ik zie het niet gebeuren in de volgende één of twee versies van de reglementen. Dat is waarom we onderzoek doen, want ik geloof dat fabrikanten en in het bijzonder power unit fabrikanten de plicht hebben om de reglementen vorm te geven en met oplossingen te komen: waterstof als brandstof."

"Voor mij en voor ons is het een goede manier om een hoop vliegen in één klap te slaan. Het is schoner, dat zeker. Het is niet helemaal schoon, toegegeven, maar het is veel beter vergeleken met traditionele brandstoffen. Het is er in overvloed, dat is zeker, terwijl organische of synthetische brandstoffen beperkt kunnen zijn wat betreft de voorraad en productiekosten."

Geluid en spektakel behouden
Rossi staart zich bovendien niet zomaar blind op eindeloze vooruitgang. De Fransman wil er alles aan doen om de beleving en het spektakel van de Formule 1 te behouden. En daar hoort nu eenmaal geluid bij. Er is in het verleden veel geklaagd over de gedempte V6 turbo hybrides, maar een echt fluisterstille F1 zou het alleen maar erger maken. Laurent ziet het als een plicht om rekening te houden met de wensen van de fans. Zonder fans is er immers geen sport:

"[Waterstof] behoudt één ding, en dat is het geluid. Oke misschien zullen mensen dat over 20 jaar vergeten, omdat de nieuwe generaties er niets om geven en ze gewend zullen zijn dat auto's stil zijn op straat, maar op dit moment, is [het geluid] ook wat de show maakt."

"We moeten niet vergeten dat de F1 sport én entertainment is. Het is zeker een bedrijf. Maar dat bedrijf is gebouwd op dat mensen er van houden, er naar kijken en ervan genieten. Ik kan daar niet niet aan denken. Dus we jagen dat na."

Een terugkeer naar de V10 zit er ondanks waterstof waarschijnlijk niet in.

Belletje naar Toyota
De experimentele waterstof Toyota GR Corolla.
© Aangeboden door Autobahn

Het onderzoek van Alpine is er voornamelijk op gericht om te bewijzen dat een waterstof Power Unit een serieuze mogelijkheid is. Rossi wil het project voorzichtig opbouwen met prototype waterstof verbrandingsmotoren in straatauto's en mogelijk een experimentele Garage 56 Le Mans racer.

Een belletje naar Toyota is daarbij wellicht op zijn plaats, aangezien de Japanners al een tijdje werken met een GR Corolla op waterstof. Die wagen produceert op het schone goedje al net zoveel vermogen als op ouderwets dinosap. De basis is er dus al, maar de grote vraag is of het systeem net zo goed geïmplementeerd zal kunnen worden in een F1 power unit en chassis.

Eerste waterstoftreinen in dienst genomen in Duitsland
ANP Producties - Gisteren om 14:00
© ANP

CUXHAVEN (ANP/AFP/BELGA) - Tussen de Duitse plaatsen Cuxhaven en Buxtehude bij Hamburg rijden met ingang van woensdag waterstoftreinen. Volgens de Franse fabrikant Alstom, die de treinen heeft gemaakt, gaat het om een wereldprimeur voor personenvervoer.

De waterstoftreinen hebben speciale brandstofcellen die waterstof mengen met zuurstof en zo omzetten in elektriciteit. Alstom meldt dat de treinen een actieradius hebben van 1000 kilometer en de hele dag op slechts een tank waterstof kunnen rijden. Ze stoten alleen water en stoom uit.

Op het Duitse traject reden de laatste jaren dieseltreinen. Die worden vervangen door een vloot van veertien waterstoftreinen. De lokale spoorvervoerder LNVG zegt dat de ze samen goed zijn voor een jaarlijkse besparing van 4400 ton CO2-uitstoot.

Nederland

Eerder werden de milieuvriendelijke treinen al uitgebreid getest, onder meer in Nederland. De provincie Groningen is er heel enthousiast over en wil dat ze ook hier in de dienstregeling komen. De voorbereiding daarvoor loopt nog.

De kans is groot dat er binnen niet al te lange tijd meer waterstoftreinen gaan rondrijden in Europa. Alstom heeft al opdrachten binnen voor het leveren van de treinen voor trajecten in Duitsland, Italië en Frankrijk. Andere treinenbouwers timmeren op dit vlak eveneens aan de weg.

Levering

Een spoordeskundige van adviesbureau Roland Berger denkt dat tegen 2035 ongeveer 15 tot 20 procent van de markt voor regionale treinen in Europa draait op waterstof. Daarvoor is veel waterstof nodig en een land als Duitsland zal daarom ook veel waterstof moeten gaan importeren.

De Duitse bondskanselier Olaf Scholz tekende deze week tijdens bezoek aan Canada daarom alvast een overeenkomst voor de levering van groene waterstof. Die deal maakt de weg vrij voor het opzetten van een trans-Atlantische toeleveringsketen.
