Hydrogen Storage Technologies

Bol Partner

Provides a comprehensive practical review of the available hydrogen storage technologies such as: electrochemical hydrogen storage; chemical hydrogen storage; graphene and hydrogen storage; nanotechnology and hydrogen storage; carbon- based materials and hydrogen storage. Hydrogen storage is considered a key technology for stationary and portable power generation especially for transportation. This volume covers the novel technologies to efficiently store and distribute hydrogen and discusses the underlying basics as well as the advanced details in hydrogen storage technologies. The book has two major parts: Chemical and electrochemical hydrogen storage and Carbon-based materials for hydrogen storage. The following subjects are detailed in Part I: Multi stage compression system based on metal hydrides; Metal-N-H systems and their physico-chemical properties; Mg-based nano materials with enhanced sorption kinetics; Gaseous and electrochemical hydrogen storage in the Ti-Z-Ni; Electrochemical methods for hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of metal hydrides. In Part II the following subjects are addressed: Activated carbon for hydrogen storage obtained from agro-industrial waste; Hydrogen storage using carbonaceous materials; Hydrogen storage performance of composite material consisting of single walled carbon nanotubes and metal oxide nanoparticles; Hydrogen storage characteristics of graphene addition of hydrogen storage materials; Discussion of the crucial features of hydrogen adsorption of nanotextured carbon-based materials. Audience The book will have a wide audience including those in electrochemistry, physics, materials science and engineering, mechanical and chemical engineering as well as renewable energy and storage technologies.

An industrial perspective on hydrogen storage, including analyses of storage alternatives based on environmental, economic and safety aspects. Emphasis is placed on those technologies with the potential for commercialization. An exploration of current and possible future hydrogen storage technologies, written from an industrial perspective. The book describes the fundamentals, taking into consideration environmental, economic and safety aspects, as well as presenting infrastructure requirements, with a special focus on hydrogen applications in production, transportation, military, stationary and mobile storage. A comparison of the different storage technologies is also included, ranging from storage of pure hydrogen in different states, via chemical storage right up to new materials already under development. Throughout, emphasis is placed on those technologies with the potential for commercialization.
