Beef-derived mesoporous carbon as highly efficient support for PtRuIr electrocatalysts and their high activity for CO and methanol oxidation
(SACI, 2014)In this work, a low-cost and nitrogen-containing carbon with mesoporous pores and high surface area was synthesized by carbonizing a natural biomass precursor, i.e. beef. It is found that the prepared material has excellent ... -
Dehydrogenation of metal hydride reactor-phase change materials coupled with light-duty fuel cell vehicles
(MDPI, 2022)The popularity of using phase change materials (PCMs) for heat storage and recovery of metal hydrides’ reaction has grown tremendously. However, a fundamental study of the coupling of such a system with a low-temperature ... -
Ex-situ electrochemical characterization of iro2 synthesized by a modified Adams fusion method for the oxygen evolution reaction
(MDPI, 2019)The development of highly stable and active electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) has attracted significant research interest. IrO2 is known to show good stability during the OER however it is not known ... -
Highly-dispersed vanadium nitride supported on porous nitrogen-doped carbon material as a high-performance cathode for lithium-sulfur batteries
(Wiley, 2022)Transition metals and their compounds supported on carbon materials are widely used as cathodes for lithium-sulfur batteries. Vanadium nitride is considered to be a promising cathode because of its good adsorption capacity ... -
Improved hydrogenation kinetics of timn1.52 alloy coated with palladium through electroless deposition
(MPDI, 2021)The deterioration of hydrogen charging performances resulting from the surface chemical action of electrophilic gases such as CO2 is one of the prevailing drawbacks of TiMn1.52 materials. In this study, we report the ... -
Magnesium- and intermetallic alloys-based hydrides for energy storage: Modelling, synthesis and properties
(IOP Publishing, 2022)Hydrides based on magnesium and intermetallic compounds provide a viable solution to the challenge of energy storage from renewable sources, thanks to their ability to absorb and desorb hydrogen in a reversible way with a ... -
Metal hydride beds-phase change materials: Dual mode thermal energy storage for medium-high temperature industrial waste heat recovery
(MDPI, 2019)Heat storage systems based on two-tank thermochemical heat storage are gaining momentum for their utilization in solar power plants or industrial waste heat recovery since they can e ciently store heat for future usage. ... -
Recovery and recycling of valuable metals from spent lithium-ion batteries: A comprehensive review and analysis
(MDPI, 2023)The recycling of spent lithium-ion batteries (Li-ion Batteries) has drawn a lot of interest in recent years in response to the rising demand for the corresponding high-value metals and materials and the mounting concern ... -
Scaling factors for channel width variations in treelike flow field patterns for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells - An experimental study
(Elsevier, 2021)To have a uniform distribution of reactants is an advantage to a fuel cell. We report results for such a distributor with tree-like flow field plates (FFP). Numerical simulations have shown that the width scaling parameters ...
