2006 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Advanced Hydrogen Storage Systems

Significant improvements over currently available hydrogen storage technologies are required if hydrogen is to become a viable energy carrier. Compact, lightweight carbon adsorbent materials have become interesting for possible use in a hydrogen storage system. Other advanced storage material made of various hydrides and ceramics are also being investigated. This session will cover hydrogen storage topics related to all types of advanced adsorbent materials. Topic areas will cover advanced carbon nano tube, ceramics and metal hydrides technologies and metal organic compounds.
