Stanford researchers make ammonia from air and water microdroplets

Green Car Congress

Stanford researchers, with a colleague from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, have developed a simple and environmentally sound way to make ammonia with tiny droplets of water and nitrogen from the air. This gas–liquid–solid heterogeneous catalytic system synthesizes ammonia in 0.2 The conversion rate reaches 32.9 ± 1.38

Wärtsilä gas engines to burn 100% hydrogen

Green Car Congress

The technology group Wärtsilä is developing the combustion process in its gas engines to enable them to burn 100% hydrogen fuel. Wärtsilä has researched hydrogen as a fuel for 20 years, and has tested its engines with blends of up to 60% hydrogen and 40% natural gas. Hydrogen as part of the renewable electricity system of the future.

thyssenkrupp offering large-scale water electrolysis

Green Car Congress

thyssenkrupp recently introduced industrial-scale water electrolysis for large projects. By splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen, this technology delivers “green” hydrogen, a clean, CO 2 -free energy carrier. The only inputs needed are water and renewable electricity from wind, hydro power or photovoltaics.

U Oregon team advances effectiveness of catalytic water dissociation in bipolar membranes

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the University of Oregon have advanced the effectiveness of the catalytic water dissociation reaction in bipolar membranes. The technology behind bipolar membranes, which are layered ion-exchange polymers sandwiching a water dissociation catalyst layer, emerged in the 1950s. —Oener et al. —Shannon Boettcher.

Lawrence Livermore publishes state-by-state energy/water Sankey diagrams

Green Car Congress

For the first time, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has published state-by-state energy and water Sankey diagrams in one location so that analysts and policymakers can find all the information they need in one place. General location of energy and water categories. Energy and water generally “flows” from left to right.
