    Hydrogen Production From Energetic Poplar and Waste Sludge by Electrohydrogenesis Using Membraneless Microbial Electrolysis Cells
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2024) Goren, A. Yagmur; Kilicaslan, A. Faruk; Dincer, Ibrahim; Khalvati, Ali
    Membraneless microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) are potentially considered to produce biohydrogen (bioH2) in a green manner and simultaneously minimize agricultural and wastewater facility wastes. However, effective, sustainable, and cost-effective system configuration and improvement of operating variables, working at ambient conditions, are needed to make the MEC a sustainable process. Therefore, this study investigates the bioH2 production from poplar leaves and anaerobic sludge mixture by incorporating nanomaterials comprising Al2O3, MgO, and Fe2O3 metal oxides at various dosages. Moreover, the effects of applied cell voltage (0.5-1.5 V) and inoculum amount (20-40 mL) on bioH2 production and organic matter removal performance are evaluated. The maximum bioH2 production value is 417 mL at an applied voltage of 1.5 V with a chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency of 37.6 % under operating times of 5 min using 40 ml of inoculum. The bioH2 production of the MEC system is reduced with the decrease in inoculum amount. The highest bioH2 production of 828 mL is obtained at improved conditions in the presence of 1 g of Fe2O3 metal oxide. Overall, this study provides the potentiality of simultaneous waste minimization and bioH2 production under ambient conditions that highlight the waste-to-energy pathway for membraneless and green bioelectrochemical process.

    Energy and Exergy Analysis of a Pv-T Integrated Ethanol Pem Electrolyzer
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021) Çağlar, Başar; Araz, Mustafa; Özcan, Hüseyin Günhan; Çalışan, Atalay; Hepbaşlı, Arif
    A photovoltaic-thermal (PV-T) integrated ethanol proton exchange membrane electrolyzer (PEME) was proposed as a low-energy consuming energy storage option for renewable-sourced electricity as well as a way for simultaneous chemical production in this study. Energy and exergy analyses were applied to each component of the system (e.g., pumps, heat exchanger, PV-T, PEME, and separation unit (SPU)) and the whole system to assess the system performance. The mathematical modelling of the whole system along with its main components except for the SPU was done using the Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software package while the SPU was modelled through the ASPEN Plus. A detailed modelling of the PEME was also included. The effects of the PV-T and PEME parameters on energy and exergy efficiencies of the system were evaluated while the improvement potentials and scale up options were discussed. Energy and exergy efficiencies of the proposed system at the optimum operation of the PEME and under average climatic conditions in the city of Izmir, Turkey were determined to be 27.8% and 3.1%, respectively. Energy and exergy efficiencies of the system were mainly regulated by the PV-T and PEME, whose energy and exergy efficiencies were 40.6%, 56.6% and 13.8%, 14.1%, respectively. Effective PEME parameters for energy and exergy efficiencies of the system were membrane conductivity, membrane thickness, anode catalyst and the operation temperature of the PEME. By changing the PV-T and PEME parameters and by scale-up, energy and exergy efficiencies of the system could be improved.

    Assessment of Geothermal Energy Use With Thermoelectric Generator for Hydrogen Production
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2021) Hadjiat, M. M.; Hancıoğlu, Ebru; Mraoui, A.; Ouali, S.; Hancıoğlu Kuzgunkaya, Ebru; Salhi, K.; Ouali, A. Ait; Benaouda, N.
    In this work, a new model for producing hydrogen from a low enthalpy geothermal source was presented. Thermal energy from geothermal sources can be converted into electric power by using thermoelectric modules instead of Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) machines, especially for low geothermal temperatures. This electrical energy uses the water electrolysis process to produce hydrogen. Simulation and experiments for the thermoelectric module in this system were undertaken to assess the efficiency of these models. TRNSYS software is used to simulate the system in Hammam Righa spa, the temperature of this spring is 70 degrees C. Obtained results reveal that in hammam righa spa in Algeria, 0.5652 Kg hydrogen per square meter of thermoelectric generator (TEG) can be produced in one year.
