Development and modeling of a lab-scale integrated copper-chlorine cycle for hydrogen production
(2020-08-01)
Hydrogen is one of the most important energy carriers, clean fuels, and storage media in the upcoming future. Hydrogen production through the thermochemical copper-chlorine (Cu-Cl) cycle is one of the most promising methods ...
Development and analysis of a high temperature electrolyser for the Cu-Cl cycle for hydrogen production
(2017-01-01)
A number of thermochemical cycles have been investigated to produce hydrogen from water. However, most of these cycles operate at over 800°C. The relatively lower temperature (550°C) requirement and use of inexpensive ...
Investigation of a novel high temperature solid oxide electrolyzer for solar hydrogen production
(2017-04-01)
This thesis proposes and investigates a new generation of photoelectrochemical cells for solar hydrogen production based on high temperature Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells. Therefore, a set of experiments are designed to ...
Experimental investigation of an integrated solar driven wastewater treatment system for trigeneration applications
(2018-08-01)
Hydrogen is a promising alternative as an energy carrier (and carbon-free fuel) to meet the global power demand. Hydrogen production systems can efficiently harvest energy from renewable sources. Even though photo-electrochemical ...
Development and investigation of integrated solar systems for hydrogen and methanol production
(2018-04-01)
Implications of climate change, in particular the negative effects of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions resulting from fossil fuel combustion, as well as the finite nature of fossil fuels necessitate the implementation of ...
Thermal management of the copper-chlorine cycle for hydrogen production: analytical and experimental investigation of heat recovery from molten salt
(2012-08-01)
Hydrogen is known as a clean energy carrier which has the potential to play a major role in addressing the climate change and global warming, and thermochemical water splitting via the copper-chlorine cycle is a promising ...
Mass transfer and particle dissolution in liquid-gas and solid-liquid flows: Application to hydrogen production processes.
(2013-10-01)
Many environmental problems are related to the production, transformation and use
of energy. Some of the concerns include, but are not limited to, acid rain, ozone depletion
and climate change. Therefore, “greener” ...
Development and analysis of alternative thermochemical cycles for hydrogen production
(2021-12-01)
Production of carbon-free fuels as alternatives for fossil fuels is a promising approach for controlling climate change and global warming. Hydrogen is considered as the key energy carrier of the future when it is produced ...
Modified Nafion membranes for hydrogen production in Cu-Cl thermochemical cycle
(2015-07-01)
The decomposition of water by a thermochemical cycle is a promising green method of producing hydrogen on a large scale. A thermochemical cycle is a combination of thermal and chemical reactions that ultimately leads to ...
Study on linking a SuperCritical water-cooled nuclear reactor to a hydrogen production facility
(2011-07-01)
The SuperCritical Water-cooled nuclear Reactor (SCWR) is one of six Generation-IV nuclear-reactor concepts currently being designed. It will operate at pressures of 25 MPa and temperatures up to 625°C. These operating ...
