About this ebook
The book has two major parts: Chemical and electrochemical hydrogen storage and Carbon-based materials for hydrogen storage. The following subjects are detailed in Part I:
- Multi stage compression system based on metal hydrides
- Metal-N-H systems and their physico-chemical properties
- Mg-based nano materials with enhanced sorption kinetics
- Gaseous and electrochemical hydrogen storage in the Ti-Z-Ni
- Electrochemical methods for hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of metal hydrides
In Part II the following subjects are addressed:
- Activated carbon for hydrogen storage obtained from agro-industrial waste
- Hydrogen storage using carbonaceous materials
- Hydrogen storage performance of composite material consisting of single walled carbon nanotubes and metal oxide nanoparticles
- Hydrogen storage characteristics of graphene addition of hydrogen storage materials
- Discussion of the crucial features of hydrogen adsorption of nanotextured carbon-based materials
