German scientists have proposed using methanol to store hydrogen, which can be used for generating clean, renewable energy later on. The only problem is that it is difficult to extract the hydrogen from methanol when needed again. Now that could change with a new catalyst that speeds up the methanol-decomposition process. The scientists at the ...
In Fig. 1, a novel zero-emission methanol based energy storage system is introduced where an electrolyser produces hydrogen. This hydrogen is directly used in a synthesis reactor to form methanol using carbon dioxide, enabling practical storage at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature.
In physics, energy density is the amount of energy stored in a given system or region of space per unit volume is sometimes confused with energy per unit mass which is properly called specific energy or gravimetric energy density.Often only the useful or extractable energy is measured, which is to say that inaccessible energy (such as rest mass …
This research investigates the feasibility of a novel zero-emission methanol based energy storage system. The main components are a PEM electrolyser followed by a recirculating catalytic synthesis reactor for methanol production. Power generation is performed by either an MSR-PEMFC, supercritical- or transcritical carbon …
The methanol economy [2], based on green-methanol synthesis pathways, has been proposed in contrast to the hydrogen economy, which requires a deep change in energy storage and transportation means. Methanol has an octane number of 113 and its energy density is about half of that of gasoline (by volume).

accounting for the storage system, LNG has roughly 1/3 the volumetric energy density as diesel. Liquid hydrogen, ammonia and met hanol have even lower volumetric energy density – around 40-50 % of LNG. Biodiesel is the only fuel which is close to matching
Hydrogen is readily converted into energy by PEM (proton-exchange membrane) fuel cells, but its inconvenience when it comes to transport and storage has limited interest in the ''hydrogen economy ...

In addition to hydrophobic interactions, π-π interactions of the phenyl stationary phase contribute to separation. Fig. 6 shows an example of the separation of positional isomers of cresol. Acetonitrile (CH3-C≡N) has a triple C-N bond and therefore π electrons, whereas methanol (CH3-OH) has no π electrons. For a phenyl column, using ...
