Porous carbon materials (PCMs) with high specific surface area (SSA) exhibit significant potential for hydrogen storage applications but are severely limited due to the weak interactions of H₂. In this work, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) was employed to prepare PCMs with ultra-high SSA and high micropore ratio through applying mechanical pressure before activation. This approach resulted in an SSA exceeding 3100 m²/g and a maximum S_BET/S_Micro ratio above 90%. The increased microporosity significantly improved hydrogen storage performance, with a 62% increase in hydrogen uptake capacity per SSA at 77 K and 50 bar-H₂, suggesting the strengthened interaction between PCMs and H₂. This is further supported by the increased isosteric heat of hydrogen adsorption (Q_st) values from 6.93 to 7.56 kJ/mol at near-zero hydrogen coverage, with S_Micro/S_BET increasing from 75.86% to 90.83%. Moreover, the increased microporosity enhances the volumetric and usable hydrogen storage capacity. Remarkably, the PCM with 84.35% microporosity and high SSA of 3116.58 m²/g exhibits a hydrogen uptake of 6.10 wt% (26.47 g/L) at 77 K under 50 bar-H₂, and retains 1.26 wt% (5.52 g/L) even at 298 K and 130 bar-H₂. This study provides a valuable reference for the large-scale preparation of PCMs with high SSA and microporosity for hydrogen storage.

Reducing the expenditure on noble Ir is crucial for the industrial application of proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE). In this work, an ordered array electrode prepared by the electrodeposition of Ru and Ir at Inverse Opal (IO) structure decorated Ti felt (Ir@RuO₂ IO/Ti felt-300 nm) is provided as the anode of PEMWE, which exhibited an enlarged electrochemically active surface area and a state-of-the-art Ir loading of 0.0841 mg _Ir cm⁻². Thus, the electrolyzer fabricated by the as-prepared electrode reached large current densities of 1 A cm⁻² and 3 A cm⁻² at 1.64 V and 2.02 V during PEMWE, respectively. Furthermore, enabled by the Ir@RuO₂ core-shell structure which can modulate the electronic microenvironment and prevent excessive oxidation dissolution of active metal sites, the PEMWE electrolyzer presented enhanced durability and drove the constant cell voltage PEMWE at 1 A cm⁻² for 250 h. This work offers a cost-effective strategy to minimize Ir reliance while advancing PEMWE efficiency and longevity.

Improving the electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance of metal bipolar plates is crucial for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). In this study, protective coatings with titanium as the base layer and amorphous carbon as the top layer were deposited on 316L stainless steel using a filtered cathodic vacuum arc (FCVA) deposition system. The effect of bias voltage on the morphology, composition, corrosion resistance, and interfacial contact resistance (ICR) of the amorphous carbon coatings was systematically investigated, with the corrosion mechanisms and surface property changes after corrosion were analyzed. During potentiostatic polarization tests at 0.6V (vs. SCE) and 1.3V (vs. SHE) for 10 h, corrosion current densities for all coatings were below 1

Hydrogen storage tanks (HST) play a crucial role in integrating renewable energy (RE) into gas-electric integrated energy systems (GEIES), overcoming the intermittency of RE. The hydrogen stored in HST can be transported through natural gas pipeline network (NGPN). However, the effects of HST pressure limits and hydrogen blending ratios on GEIES operation remains unclear. To minimize RE curtailment, this paper introduces a multi-node hydrogen blending (MNHB) mode, and develops a mixed-integer nonlinear optimization model with the objective of minimizing the daily system operating cost. This model takes into account hydrogen storage tank pressure limits (HSTPL) and hydrogen blending fluctuations (HBF) within NGPN. For enhanced solution efficiency, natural gas (NG) pipeline flow equations and generator equations are linearized. HST pressure sensitivity analysis shows that when the maximum pressure limit of HST increases from 10 MPa to 38 MPa, the system operating cost decreases by 7.1%, and boots hydrogen storage capacity increases by 251.2%. Regarding HBF, when compared to a fixed hydrogen blending ratio (FHBR) of 20%, fluctuations between 0% and 15% lead to a 43% reduction in pipeline hydrogen content, a 28.9% rise in system costs, and increases in wind and solar energy curtailment rates by 6% and 23.9%, respectively. This study offers valuable insights into how HSTPL and HBF influence GEIES performance.

Heteroatom doping is a promising strategy to enhance the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance of MXenes. The combination of machine learning (ML) techniques and high-throughput density functional theory (DFT) calculations offers an efficient approach for screening and designing HER electrocatalysts. In this study, we systematically investigated the impact of non-metal (NM) single-atom doping on the HER activity of V₂C MXenes with different surface functional groups (O and S). Our results reveal how the NM dopants influence the electronic structure, particularly the pz orbital electron redistribution, which subsequently affects the Gibbs free energy of hydrogen adsorption (ΔG_H∗). Additionally, a universal descriptor, integrating both electronic and structural properties, was developed using ML to predict ΔG_H∗ and successfully captures the HER catalytic activity trends for a variety of NM dopants in V₂CO₂ and V₂CS₂. Notably, the descriptor can also be extended to doped V₂CSe₂ and V₂CTe₂ for HER catalysis. Among the doped MXenes, P–V₂CTe₂ outperforms platinum (Pt) in terms of ΔG_H∗, demonstrating exceptional potential for practical HER applications. Our study provides a comprehensive framework for the efficient exploration and design of high-performance MXene-based HER catalysts.

The current wind power industry is gradually developing towards deep-sea areas. Utilizing offshore islands for hydrogen and ammonia production can solve the problems of power transmission and consumption in offshore areas. Ammonia, as a hydrogen vector, can replace heavy oil in marine transportation. With the increased demand for offshore ammonia refueling for ships, and considering the large-scale, long-term, and well-sealing characteristics of submarine salt cavern hydrogen storage (SSCHS) for stabilizing ammonia production, this study elaborates on a novel energy island coupled system including offshore ammonia refueling stations and SSCHS. An optimization model is established for capacity configuration and operation optimization. Sensitivity analysis is conducted on wind speed, electrolyzer efficiency, and ammonia demand. The results show that the energy island incorporating SSCHS can reduce the power curtailment rate from 11.042% to 1.903% and reduce the LCOA from CNY 5.376/kg to CNY 4.906/kg. The offshore ammonia refueling station can decarbonize the marine transportation sector by reducing 40000 tons of carbon emissions annually. Wind speed significantly impacts LCOA, with an increase of 1 m/s in average wind speed resulting in a CNY 1.76/kg decrease in LCOA. The novel coupled system can offer insights into the future development of offshore energy islands, promote the development and utilization of offshore green energy, and support the transition to a carbon-neutral society.

Laminar burning velocities of hydrogen-propane-nitrous oxide premixed flames: Experimental study and kinetic analysis

An experimental investigation and kinetic analysis on laminar burning velocities (LBVs,

S_{L}

) of hydrogen-propane-nitrous oxide flames at a large range of equivalence ratios (

ϕ = 0.4 - 1.8

), hydrogen fractions (

X_{H} = 0 - 1.0

), and initial pressures (

P_{u} = 0.5 - 3.0 atm

) were first reported in this work. Experiments were performed in a constant-volume combustion chamber (CVCC), using a high-speed schlieren system to record the flame radius-time histories. The laminar combustion characteristics and chemical reaction kinetics were discussed in detail. Results show that the inflection point of

S_{L} - ϕ

transits gradually from

ϕ = 1.0

to

ϕ = 1.4

with hydrogen fraction, due to the diffusion term dominating over the chemical term in hydrogen-rich flames. Besides,

S_{L}

presents three increasing regimes with hydrogen fraction, and the influence of hydrogen fraction on

S_{L}

is attributed to the enhancement of the chemical kinetic effect with hydrogen fraction. In addition, the sensitivity analysis shows that the elementary reactions of small species show controlling effects on the laminar burning velocity of H₂–C₃H₈–N₂O flames. Both chain-branching reactions N₂O(+M) = N₂+O(+M) and N₂O + HN₂+OH are directly related to N₂O, which is different from the chain-branching reaction H + O₂O + OH in fuel-air flames. Further, the reaction paths analysis shows that the change in hydrogen fraction would affect not only the reaction routes but also the integrated conversion rates of the main steps.

Accurately predicting the on-board H₂ injection mass is challenging for clean and efficient carbon-free internal combustion engine development. A hybrid algorithm based on H₂ pipe pressure identification and neural network modeling of H₂-diesel direct injection is proposed (H₂DDI) to predict the on-board H₂ injection mass for H₂DDI engines. This is a non-invasive method, which potentially realize the on-board closed-loop control for the H₂DDI engines based on the real-time H₂ rail pressure acquisition. In this study, the H₂ injection mass flow rate is measured based on a flow momentum test bench. The relation of H₂ injection, injection pressure and injection duration are mapped for further validation. To achieve on-board mass flow prediction, the H₂ inlet pressure is monitored and derived to identify the practical injection duration based on mean instantaneous frequency (MIF). According to the calibrated mass flow map and the on-board injection pressure and injection duration, the artificial neural network is adopted to predict the injection mass. The results show that the error of the predicted injection mass is less than 5% with a wide range of working condition, which provides the feasibility of the real-time mass flow monitoring based on on-board H₂ inlet pressure fluctuation.

Ce_0.9Gd_0.1O_2-δ (GDC) is used as the barrier layer of the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) maturely due to its advantages of high oxygen ion conductivity and excellent chemical stability.It can prevent the interfacial reaction between the cathode perovskite material and the fluorite electrolyte material effectively. In this study, the dense GDC barrier layer with fewer flaws and better gas tightness was prepared by screen-printing method and co-sintering. Improving the density of the GDC barrier layer and reducing the flaws on the interface between the GDC barrier layer and the electrolyte can contribute to the faster oxygen ion transfer, making the SOFC shows better electrochemical performance. Furthermore, densifying the GDC barrier layer can also weaken the influences of the oxygen partial pressure and the temperature on the oxygen ions conductivity of the GDC barrier layer, making the ohmic resistance of the SOFC no longer vary obviously with the oxygen partial pressure, especially at lower operation temperature. In addition, the increasing oxygen partial pressure contributed to the gaseous phase diffusion and exchange on the cathode, lowering both the cathode polarization resistance and the total resistance of the SOFC, and improving the electrochemical performance of the SOFC. This study can deepen the understanding of the GDC barrier layer, and contributes to the large-scale production and further application of the GDC barrier layer during the commercialization of the SOFC.
