Hydrogen amino alcohol energy storage

How does hydrogen storage work?

Finding affordable and efficient hydrogen storage materials is one of the greatest technical challenges facing the upcoming hydrogen economy. In conventional liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs), the hydrogen is stored in the unsaturated or aromatic molecules via a catalytic hydrogenation reaction.

Can a -amino acid be used as a hydrogen carrier?

Formic acid is a promising hydrogen carrier, but more effective and economical catalysis of both its synthesis from H 2 and CO 2 and its dehydrogenation is needed. To this end, a Mn-based complex, in the presence of an α -amino acid, is now shown to promote efficient catalysis of both reactions and enable retention and reuse of CO 2.

Are amino-alcohols reliable thermodynamic properties for reversible dehydrogenation of 2-amino-ethanol?

The reliable thermodynamic properties of amino-alcohols were recommended for the thermochemical calculations and used to calculate the reaction enthalpy of sustainable reversible dehydrogenation of 2-amino-ethanol.

How is -amino tertiary alcohol synthesized?

Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of β-Amino α-Tertiary Alcohol through Borrowing Hydrogen Amination The first enantioconvergent transition-metal-catalyzed amination of racemic α-tertiary 1,2-diols providing access to vicinal β-amino α-tertiary alcohols is disclosed.

Is hydrogen a form of chemical energy storage?

An increased need for energy storage technologies, in large part because of the recent deployment of intermittent renewable energy sources, has generated a renewed interest in hydrogen as a form of chemical energy storage.

Which storage media is best for hydrogen storage?

The most attractive hydrogen storage media are liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs), because they have relatively high hydrogen content and can be transported and distributed using the existing liquid fuel infrastructure (2 – 5).
