Process Units for Chemical Hydrogen Storage
About
Our team aims to research chemical process engineering systems for the storage and release of hydrogen in and from LOHCs. The projects start with test facilities in the laboratory environment and extend to self-sufficient demonstrators on a technical scale.
The largest current project aims to show that LOHC technology is suitable for supplying trains with emission-free energy away from electrified lines.
Research Topics
Our current research topics are
- Evaporation and condensation behavior of reactants in continuously operated LOHC reactors.
- Separation of hydrogen and LOHC in continuously operated dehydrogenation processes.
- Simulation and experimental investigation of heat input in strongly endothermic processes with multiphase flow.
- Control of LOHC processes to improve the dynamics in relation to changing performance requirements.
