Nowadays, nearly one quarter of global carbon dioxide emissions are attributable to energy use in industry, making this an important target for emission reductions. The scope study is hence that define a cost-optimized decarbonization strategy and intensive industry using Italian refinery as case study. methodology involves the coupling EnergyPLAN with Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA), considering minimization annual cost CO2 two potentially conflicting objectives technologies'...
Ucuùba fat is obtained from a plant found in South America, mainly Amazonian Brazil. Due to its biocompatibility and bioactivity, was used for the production of ketoconazole-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) view an application treatment onychomycosis other persistent fungal infections. The development optimization fat-based NLC were performed using Box-Behnken design experiments. independent variables surfactant concentration (% w/v), liquid lipids solid while outputs interest...
Ammonia represents one of the most promising potential solutions as energy vector and hydrogen carrier, having a higher to transport than itself in pressurized form. Furthermore, solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) can directly be fed with ammonia, thus allowing for immediate electrical power heat generation. This paper deals analysis dynamic behavior commercial SOFCs when fueled ammonia. Several measurements at different temperatures have been performed performances are compared...
Solar thermal energy is one of the most interesting sustainable solutions for decarbonizing sector. Integrating solar collectors with other sources common, as seen in domestic heating, where are combined common heaters to reduce fuel consumption (gasoline, electricity, gas, and biomass) therefore, cost. Similarly, this concept can be applied nuclear energy, reduction very strategic decreasing not only its cost but also risk handling, transportation, storage (both waste well). Nuclear on...
Sputtering onto liquids is rapidly gaining attention for the green and controlled dry synthesis of ultrapure catalysts nanomaterials. In this study, we present a clean single-step method gold nanoparticles directly in polyethylene glycol (PEG) liquid using radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering by subsequently transferring them to Nafion ionomer, fabricating catalyst-coated membrane (CCM), an essential component proton exchange water electrolyzer (PEMWE). The samples were systematically...
ABSTRACT Membranes play a crucial role in Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Water Electrolysis (PEMWE), key technology for green hydrogen production. While perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) membranes are widely used commercial PEMWE systems, hydrocarbon‐based gaining attention due to concerns over fluorine emissions and potential future regulatory restrictions. However, challenges such as swelling dimensional instability must be addressed viable alternatives. In this study, poly(ether ether ketone)...
Water, through a metal–water reaction, is an appealing candidate to store and release hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>), in particular as portable, easy use energy storage source.
A combined-cogenerative system is here presented and analyzed in order to prove the concept viability of coupling two most promising technologies nowadays available on market renewable storage energy. model based reversible Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Electrolyzer (rSOFC/SOE) coupled with an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) exploit waste heat coming from hydrogen conversion process. The ORC able recover a considerable part energy both power-to-hydrogen water-to-hydrogen processes. fuel cell operate as...
Abstract The EU project PROMETEO has the scope of testing a 25 kW solid oxide electrolysis system integrated with concentrated solar power plant via thermal energy storage in relevant environment. Given layout and hydrogen demand characteristics, this work aims to identify how operate effectively when renewable electricity is unavailable modulate load during generation, thus defining system's operation modes control strategy. A 5 e stack been tested at FBK facility. hot standby tests show...
Abstract Ucuùba fat was characterized and used as the lipid phase for production of nanostructured carriers (NLCs). The acid, iodine, refraction, saponification values well oxidative stability were determined. myristic acid found to be main fatty present in fat. NLCs produced by high‐pressure homogenization with tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) or Tween 80 surfactant. A full factorial experimental design 2 applied evaluate impact parameters on particle size polydispersity...
The integration of Hydrogen technologies in different end-uses such as transport, electric microgrids, residential and industrial applications, will increase exponentially soon. energy carrier allows more favourable conversion than other conventional systems is crucial worldwide decarbonize end uses. production green hydrogen, using RES, a key area for the evolution this technology. In context, SWITCH Horizon 2020 European Project that aims to design, build test an in-situ fully integrated...
To take advantage of the benefits related to high-temperature Solid Oxide Electrolysis (SOE) systems for hydrogen production with renewable and low-cost electricity heat, EU project Prometeo studies integration a SOE system CSP plant via thermal energy storage.

Green hydrogen can be generated from water and electricity renewable energy sources (solar, wind). However, the efficient continuous dispatch of green for industrial processes is challenged by intermittent supply electricity. This issue mitigated developing innovative electrolysers characterized improved efficiency, reliability flexibility, in combination with optimized schemes BoP.In this context, European project PROMETEO (Hydrogen PROduction MEans solar heat power high TEmperature Solid...
Three billion people worldwide use biomass daily for cooking, endangering health, climate, forests and biodiversity. Extensive solutions have been proposed in the literature to reduce wood usage by increasing efficiency of cooking stoves. The major challenges faced are: cultural inertia change, budget limitation technological sophistication. This document examines if wood-savings achieved Rajasthan India through Mewar Angithi (MA) insert can be replicated rural Kenya. MA local prototype...
