DOE awards $22.1M to 10 nuclear technology projects including clean hydrogen production

Green Car Congress

million to 10 industry-led projects to advance nuclear technologies, including two aimed at expanding clean hydrogen production with nuclear energy. The 50 kW demonstration will prove that high-efficiency syngas production can be achieved at low capital-cost using GRC’s unique thermal-spray-based SOCC technology.

Researchers split seawater without pre-treatment to produce green hydrogen

Green Car Congress

The use of vast amounts of high-purity water for hydrogen production may aggravate the shortage of freshwater resources. This is achieved by introducing a Lewis acid layer (for example, Cr 2 O 3 ) on transition metal oxide catalysts to dynamically split water molecules and capture hydroxyl anions.

Showa Denko starts volume production of water-based anode binder for Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

SDK) has begun volume production of its “Polysol LB Series” water-based anode binder for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The product is a water-based emulsion containing acrylic synthetic resin particles, ensuring lower environmental impact at the time of production compared with solvent-based binders.

Lithium-iron battery maintenance guide

Setec Powerr

We recommend that all lithium batteries and cells not-in-use go through at minimum one full maintenance cycle (charge to 100% SoC (state of charge), discharge to 100% DoD (depth of discharge), charge to 50% SoC) once every 6-12 months to maintain the battery’s capacity.
