  3. 7. SFEER Hydrogen Permeation : Finding a suitable coating for the PA6 liner

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Elsa Friis; Klara Karlsson; Rebecka Damgren; Emma Åkesson; Malin Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrogen permeation; PA6; coating; hydrogen permeation barrier; polymer hydrogen permeation; permeation; protective coating; hydrogen embrittlement;

    Abstract : Water Stuff & Sun are developing a hydrogen battery based on a technology called SFEER’s. The SFEER’s are spherical high-pressure gas storage containers that are the size of a tennis ball. They consist of a carbon fiber-shell that is lined on the inside with a polymer called PA6.

  4. 8. Towards Affordable Sodium-Ion Batteries : Mechanochemical Synthesis and Electrochemical Assessment of Iron-Based Fluorophosphate Cathode Material

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Ratna Juwita; [2023]
    Keywords : Sodium-ion batteries; electrical energy storage EES ; iron oxide; positive electrode; material characterization; electrochemical; discharge capacity.; Natriumjonbatterier; elektrisk energilagring EES ; järnoxid; positiv elektrod; materialkarakterisering; elektrokemisk; urladdningskapacitet;

    Abstract : An urgent transformation from fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources to combat climate change has led to the utilization of renewable energies like solar, wind, and tidal power. However, the intermittency of these sources hinders their wider implementation. To address this, large-scale electrical energy storage (EES) systems are needed. READ MORE

  5. 9. Agile robotic arm for vertical applications - Evaluation, design and development

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Maskinelement

    Author : Rasmus Gren; [2023]
    Keywords : Robotic arm development; HKM; Kinematics; Product development; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Existing pick and place robots are either heavy or have a limited workspace for vertical operations. Since there is no robot today that are both light and have a good vertical workspace, this leads to a gap in the market. READ MORE

  6. 10. Application of electrodes with redox mechanisms for the desalination of water

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Pablo Moreno Cerezo; [2023]
    Keywords : Activated Carbon Cloth ACC ; Capacitive Deionization CDI ; Cyclic Voltammetry CV ; Electrochemistry; Polyaniline PANI ; Prussian Blue PB and Redox Reactions; Aktivt koltyg ACC ; Kapacitiv avjonisering CDI ; Cyklisk voltammetri CV ; Elektrokemi; Polyanilin PANI ; Preussisk blå PB och Redoxreaktioner;

    Abstract : Capacitive deionization is a promising technology for purification and desalination of brackish water with great advantages over current technologies due to its low operating cost and high-water recovery ratio. Most of the system studied relies on the adsorption/desorption capacity of activated carbon electrodes due to its high surface area. READ MORE
