The resulting biomass was suitable for fuel conversion via hydrothermal liquefaction due to consistent lipid content, low ash content, and consistent elemental composition.
The pyrophoricity of Cu/ZnO-based and Pt-based catalysts was studied during oxidative shut-down/start-up of the low-temperature water-gas shift (LT-WGS) reaction to assess whether these catalysts are suitable for fuel cell application.
The permeability, which is a product of the diffusion coefficient and solubility, of oxygen and hydrogen were almost the same for the perfluoroethylenesulfuric acid membrane and the sulfuric acid solution; therefore, these values are suitable for fuel cell applications.
The sulphur contents of both Tai and Garin Maiganga coal samples are within the acceptable limit; they may be suitable for smokeless fuel production, heating of residential buildings, firing kiln for cement production, raising steam for power generation and in foundry coke production.
The lower portion, which was densified to make fuel pellets, was found to be suitable for use as fuel.
The strict political regulations in terms of engine tailpipe emissions and reduction of fossil fuel dependency are pushing forward the study of alternative fuels; these fuels must be suitable for currently available engines, in order to allow quick and inexpensive replacement.
Engineering researchers from Tufts University and Harvard University in Massachusetts, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison, have demonstrated the low-temperature efficacy of an atomically dispersed platinum catalyst, which could be suitable for onboard hydrogen production in fuel cell powered vehicles.
The biomass gasification technology at MIUN is simple, cheap, reliable, and can obtain a syngas of high CO + H2 concentration with sufficient high ratio of H2 to CO, which may be suitable for synthesis of methane, DME, FT-fuels or alcohol fuels.
Because the Hastelloy C22 is inert to corrosion, defect in the gold coating will not grow, and a gold-coated Hastelloy C22 bipolar plate should be suitable for use in a HT PEM fuel cell.
Moreover, hydrogen will only be suitable for the mass market when there is a network of fueling stations.
