this paper presents a control strategy for fuel cell/energy storage power generation system during voltage sag conditions. the hybrid dc power sources are connected to grid using power electronic converters include dc-dc converter and grid connected voltage source inverter. the power from hybrid power sources is controlled during voltage sag by designing of control strategy for dc-dc converter....

concurrent renewable energy production and wastewater treatment are two main reasons for using microbial fuel cells (mfcs). in this study, real wastewater was used for treating and power generation by air cathode microbial desalination cells (acmfc). the total duration of voltage generation by acmfc was about 151.9 ±23.2 h. the maximum voltage produced from municipal wastewater treatment was 27...

in this work, ce0.75gd0.1ca0.15o1.8 nanopowders are successfully synthesized by a glycine-nitrate combustionprocess under the microwave irradiation. then calcination was carried out at 700 °c. calcined powdersidentified by room temperature x-ray diffraction were single phase and had a crystallite size between 16 to 24nm (based on schererr formula). scanning electron microscopy (sem) was employe...

In this study, a more accurate model of fuel cell of molten carbonate was also used that was determined input and output control variables and investigated the behavior of the system with respect to those variables. A more complete kinetic is also implemented for increasing the effectiveness of the presented paper. The input variables include fuel flow rate of cell which is methane and cell vol...

Regenerative Fuel Cell (RFC) systems are used for the enhancement of sustainable energy aspect in conventional fuel cells. In this study, a photovoltaic-electrolyzer-fuel cell integrated cycle has been presented. The proposed system has been designed as a novel approach for alleviating the restrictions  on energy streams in the RFC systems. Modeling of the system has been performed from the mas...

Six different electron mediators were immobilized on the activated carbon (AC) anode and their effects on performance of a direct glucose alkaline fuel cell were explored. 2-hydroxy-1, 4-naphthoquinone (NQ), methyl viologen (MV), neutral red (NR), methylene blue (MB), 1, 5-dichloroanthraquinone (DA) and anthraquinone (AQ) were doped in activated carbon (AC), respectively, and pressed on nickel ...

The malonyl-CoA/long-chain acyl-CoA (LC-CoA) model of glucose-induced insulin secretion (GIIS) predicts that malonyl-CoA derived from glucose metabolism inhibits fatty acid oxidation, thereby increasing the availability of LC-CoA for lipid signaling to cellular processes involved in exocytosis. For directly testing the model, INSr3 cell clones overexpressing malonyl-CoA decarboxylase in the cyt...

The proton exchange membrane (PEMFC) fuel cell represents the energy of the future, in parallel with hydrogen. However, this technology must meet many technical challenges related to performance and durability before being sold on a large scale. It is well known that these challenges are closely linked to water management. This paper develops and implements a model of PEM fuel for simulation to...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae present in common Baker's yeast was used in a microbial fuel cell in which glucose was the carbon source. Methylene blue was used as the electronophore in the anode compartment, while potassium ferricyanide and methylene blue were tested as electron acceptors in the cathode compartment. Microbes in a mediator-free environment were used as the control. The experiment was...
