Abstract:

With the increasing use of renewable energy systems and the volatility of access to this type of energy, needs energy storage systems to sustain the system. In the meantime, energy storage systems have distinct characteristics and applications, one of which is the compressed air energy storage system. In the present paper, the newest researches and novel systems in the field of energy storage based on compression of air and their properties were compared with the classification and comparison of the system processes. The commonalities of all these systems are the use of compressed air or compressible fluid, to store energy as a mechanical potential. In terms of how the air is stored, these systems can be divided into three categories: isochoric, isobaric, and Liquefaction. For the complexity of the systems studied in this paper, they were classified into two major categories of compressed air energy storage, together with thermal storage and novel and hybrid systems. The development of compressed air energy storage systems with thermal storage seems more difficult because of the high capital cost. But the novel and hybrid systems, although slightly beyond existing technological frontiers by combining and integrating compressed air energy storage technology with other technologies such as city gate station systems, pumped hydro storage, and air liquefaction can play a significant role in the energy storage landscape.

An Overview of Novel Anticoagulants

Arterial and venous thromboembolism is one of the most common causes of death worldwide. For almost seventy years, heparin, low molecular weight heparin, and vitamin K antagonists have been widely used in the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders. However, many of the limitations of these traditional anticoagulants have led to the search for and attempts to introduce better drug ...

Novel Electrolyte Energy Storage Systems

We seek an approach to enable widespread deployment of grid-based storage by drastically lowering the cost of such a system. We are doing so by reexamining the fundamentals of flow battery technology and engaging in an effort in which the active redox couples, the materials that separate the couples, and the flow characteristics that dictate the rate of delivery are optimized, thereby allowing ...

Novel Electrolyte Energy Storage Systems

To enhance reliability of the electric grid while simultaneously incorporating renewable power sources into it, there is a pressing need for electrical energy storage, to increase the capability for dispatch and to accommodate the variable nature of those resources. There is, at present, very little energy storage on the grid, due in part to the high capital costs associated with electrochemica...
