Bipolar plates form the backbone of proton exchange fuel cells and consequently capture a significant portion of the fuel cell stack value, with IDTechEx forecasting their market value to exceed US$2.4 bn by 2033.
Currently, there is a growing demand for the development of sustainable and renewable energy technologies owing to the growing concerns of environmental degradation and energy scarcity.
With water as the only “waste” product, solid oxide fuel cells, often known as SOFCs, are a type of electrochemical device that uses hydrogen as fuel to produce electricity
Researchers at TU Wien (Vienna) have recently designed a new kind of battery technology – the oxygen-ion battery – which is set to revolutionize the face of energy storage.
Recent research aimed at obtaining a better understanding of the complex and tightly coupled interactions that occur inside the fuel cell, relating water generation and transport to local temperature distributions and cell performance, with a focus on the under-rib and under-channel features.
Mabanaft GmbH & Co. KG and Hapag-Lloyd AG have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to evaluate options for the supply of ammonia as bunker fuel to Hapag-Lloyd in and around the Port of Hamburg, Germany and also the Port of Houston, Texas, USA.
Currently, microbial fuel cells are primarily used to produce electricity in research labs. The fuel cells need to be improved so that they can consistently produce higher amounts of electricity than they can now in order for industrial applications to be taken into consideration in the future.
Ascent Funds (“Ascent”), an energy-tech venture company today announced it has invested in Forge Nano Inc (“Forge Nano”), inventor of nanocoating technology Atomic Armor, which coats a protective atomic layer on a wide range of materials, powders and products to deliver greater performance for a lower cost.
Two projects will demonstrate improved separation technologies to help the U.S. get even more energy out of safe, clean nuclear power.
Linde will be exhibiting a number of flagship gas technologies at this year’s Formnext (15-18 November), including its bespoke gas mixture developed specifically to optimize printing in laser powder bed fusion processes; pioneering gas atomization solutions for metal powder production; its turnkey offering to help accelerate the use of the special alloy nitinol, plus the opportunity to confidentially discuss innovative technologies to combat the market for counterfeit additive manufactured parts.
