Hydrogen liquefaction and storage: Recent progress and perspectives by ZHANG, TONGTONG

“…Among these, liquid hydrogen, due to its high energy density, ambient storage pressure, high hydrogen purity (no contamination risks), and mature technology (stationary liquid hydrogen storage), is suitable for the transport of large-volumes of hydrogen over long distances and has gained increased attention in recent years. However, there are critical obstacles to the development of liquid hydrogen systems, namely an energy intensive liquefaction process (∼13.8 kWh/kgLH2) and high hydrogen boil-off losses (liquid hydrogen evaporation during storage, 1–5% per day). …”

Microwave-synthesized composite preformed particle gels based on tragacanth gum and palygorskite for high-salinity high-temperature conditions by Ahmed Ben Ali (17792594)

“…Swelling behavior in real Gulf seawater (TDS = 45,2 mg/L) and rheological measurements taken at elevated temperatures (80 °C and 100 °C) showed that the addition of Pal enhanced gel rigidity but slightly reduced swelling capacity, likely due to increased steric hindrance. The formulation TPAC₂ (2.5 g Pal) exhibited an optimal balance between swelling (14.2 g/g at 100 °C) and mechanical strength, making it a strong candidate for reservoir applications. …”
