Solid State Hydrogen Storage in Alanates and Alanate-Based Compounds: A Review
Jul 2018
Publication
The safest way to store hydrogen is in solid form physically entrapped in molecular form in highly porous materials or chemically bound in atomic form in hydrides. Among the different families of these compounds alkaline and alkaline earth metals alumino-hydrides (alanates) have been regarded as promising storing media and have been extensively studied since 1997 when Bogdanovic and Schwickardi reported that Ti-doped sodium alanate could be re Read More
Tetrahydroborates: Development and Potential as Hydrogen Storage Medium
Oct 2017
Publication
The use of fossil fuels as an energy supply becomes increasingly problematic from the point of view of both environmental emissions and energy sustainability. As an alternative hydrogen is widely regarded as a key element for a potential energy solution. However differently from fossil fuels such as oil gas and coal the production of hydrogen requires energy. Alternative and intermittent renewable energy sources such as solar power wind power Read More
Scale-up of Milling in a 100 L Device for Processing of TiFeMn Alloy for Hydrogen Storage Applications: Procedure and characterization
Feb 2019
Publication
In this work the mechanical milling of a FeTiMn alloy for hydrogen storage purposes was performed in an industrial milling device. The TiFe hydride is interesting from the technological standpoint because of the abundance and the low cost of its constituent elements Ti and Fe as well as its high volumetric hydrogen capacity. However TiFe is difficult to activate usually requiring a thermal treatment above 400 °C. A TiFeMn alloy milled for just 10 min in Read More
Recent Progress and New Perspectives on Metal Amide and Imide Systems for Solid-State Hydrogen Storage
Apr 2018
Publication
Hydrogen storage in the solid state represents one of the most attractive and challenging ways to supply hydrogen to a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell. Although in the last 15 years a large variety of material systems have been identified as possible candidates for storing hydrogen further efforts have to be made in the development of systems which meet the strict targets of the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCH JU) and U.S. Read More

Metal hydrides are known as a potential efficient low-risk option for high-density hydrogen storage since the late 1970s. In this paper the present status and the future perspectives of the use of metal hydrides for hydrogen storage are discussed. Since the early 1990s interstitial metal hydrides are known as base materials for Ni – metal hydride rechargeable batteries. For hydrogen storage metal hydride systems have been developed in the 2010s [1] for us Read More
Non-Precious Electrodes for Practical Alkaline Water Electrolysis
Apr 2019
Publication
Water electrolysis is a promising approach to hydrogen production from renewable energy sources. Alkaline water electrolyzers allow using non-noble and low-cost materials. An analysis of common assumptions and experimental conditions (low concentrations low temperature low current densities and short-term experiments) found in the literature is reported. The steps to estimate the reaction overpotentials for hydrogen and oxygen reactions are re Read More
Blending Hydrogen in Existing Natural Gas Pipelines: Integrity Consequences from a Fitness for Service Perspective
Jun 2023
Publication
Blending hydrogen in existing natural gas pipelines compromises steel integrity because it increases fatigue crack growth promotes subcritical cracking and decreases fracture toughness. In this regard several laboratories reported that the fracture toughness measured in a hydrogen containing gaseous atmosphere KIH can be 50% or less than KIC the fracture toughness measured in air. From a pipeline integrity perspective fracture mechanics pre Read More
