    Abstract : Fuel cells have emerged as one alternative to satisfy the need of energy systems with net-zero emissions. Although fuel cells date back to the 1800s, it is only during the last decades that their research has boosted to ease their commercialization. READ MORE

  6. 14. Development and Characterisation of Cathode Materials for the Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell

    Author : Athula Wijayasinghe; KTH; []
    Keywords : molten carbonate fuel cell MCFC ; MCFC cathode; LiFeO2-LiCoO2-NiO ternary compositions; electrical conductivity; porous gas diffusion electrodes; polarization; electrochemical performance; post-cell characterization;

    Abstract : Among the obstacles for the commercialization of the MoltenCarbonate Fuel Cell (MCFC), the dissolution of thestate-of-the-art lithiated NiO cathode is considered as aprimary lifetime limiting constraint. Development ofalternative cathode materials is considered as a main strategyfor solving the cathode dissolution problem. READ MORE

  7. 15. Fabrication and Characterization of Composite TiO2/Carbon Nanofilms with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity

    Author : Raja Sellappan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TiO2; carbon; photoluminescence; photodegradation; recombination.; Photocatalysis;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis is dedicated to fabrication and characterization of an efficient thin film photocatalyst for environmental cleaning and solar fuel applications. Because of its simplicity and reproducible fabrication, the chosen combination of nanometer thin titania and carbon films serves also as a model system for a wider class of photoactive materials.
