Global warming and associated climate change are ongoing processes worldwide, behind which anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions play the main role. Renewable energy sources integrated in hybrid systems (HES) fundamental solutions to meet demands a sustainable manner. Proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysers fuel cell stacks can be used as integral components of HES several applications, f...

Process to process material and heat integration strategies for bio-oil integrated gasification and methanol synthesis (BOIG-MeOH) systems were developed to assess their technological and economic feasibility. Distributed bio-oil generations and centralised processing enhance resource flexibility and technological feasibility. Economic performance depends on the integration of centralised BOIG-...

The FM01-LC is a laboratory-scale, electrochemical filter-press cell with a projected electrode area of 64 cm and a rectangular electrolyte flow channel which was originally based on the larger FM21-SP electrolyser of 2100 cm projected electrode area designed for the chlor-alkali industry then diversified to other applications. Many laboratories and industries have utilised this type of control...

Fuel electrode supported microtubular solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) fabricated at ICMA have been characterized in both solid oxide steam electrolyser (SOEC) and fuel cell modes. The cells consists of a fuel electrode supporting tube of Ni/YSZ with 40% porosity, 400 μm thickness, 2.4 mm diameter and 100-150 mm length, a 15 m thick YSZ electrolyte and a 50vol% LSM/YSZ composite air electrode of...

Development of an efficient process for purification of DNA plasmids continues to be a technological challenge [1-3]. While earlier applications of DNA plasmids were mostly in cloning, the last few years have seen its increasing applications in gene therapy [1] and preparation of DNA vaccines [4]. A crucial step in the production process is the downstream processing stage which encompasses sepa...

Optimised mass transport is crucial for high current density operations in Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Water Electrolysers (PEMWEs). This study investigates the effect and interactions of parameters on performance a PEMWE using 2 3 full-factorial Design-of-Experiments (DoE) approach with replication. The effects anode flow-field design, porous layer (PTL) water flow rate cell were studied. At ...

Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts are pivotal for sustainable hydrogen production through anion exchange membrane electrolysis. Cost-effective transition metals such as nickel and iron-based oxides (Ni–Fe–Ox) have been recognized viable catalysts the oxygen process in alkaline media. In this work, we study electrochemical characterization stability of Ni–Fe–Ox to find suitability...
