    Metal Hydride Hydrogen Storage (Compression) Units Operating at Near-Atmospheric Pressure of the Feed H2

    by Boris Tarasov, Artem Arbuzov, Sergey Mozhzhukhin, Aleksey Volodin, Pavel Fursikov, Moegamat Wafeeq Davids, Joshua Adeniran, Mykhaylo Lototskyy

    Metal hydride (MH) hydrogen storage and compression systems with near-atmospheric H2 suction pressure are necessary for the utilization of the low-pressure H2 produced by solid oxide electrolyzers or released as a byproduct of chemical industries. Such systems should provide reasonably high productivity in the modes of both charge (H2 absorption at PL ≤ 1 atm) and discharge (H2 desorption at PH = 2–5 atm), which implies the provision of H2 equilibrium pressures Peq < PL at the available cooling temperature (TL = 15–20 °C) and, at the same time, Peq > PH when heated to TH = 90–150 °C. This work presents results of the development of such systems based on AB5-type intermetallics characterized by Peq of 0.1–0.3 atm and 3–8 atm for H2 absorption at TL = 15 °C and H2 desorption at TH = 100 °C, respectively. The MH powders mixed with 1 wt.% of Ni-doped graphene-like material or expanded natural graphite for the improvement of H2 charge dynamics were loaded in a cylindrical container equipped with internal and external heat exchangers. The developed units with a capacity of about 1 Nm3 H2 were shown to exhibit H2 flow rates above 10 NL/min during H2 charge at ≤1 atm when cooled to ≤20 °C with cold water and H2 release at a pressure above 2 and 5 atm when heated to 90 and 120 °C with hot water and steam, respectively.

    One of the issues associated with the supply of electricity is its generation capacity, and this has led to prevalent power cuts and high costs of usage experienced in many developing nations, including South Africa. Historical research has shown that the annual rate of increase for electricity has grown at an alarming rate since 2008 and, in some years, has grown as much as 16%. The objectives of this study are to estimate the cost analysis of electricity usage at the twenty-nine residences of the University of Johannesburg (UJ-Res) and propose a model for our university, as well as other South African universities, to become more energy-efficient. This was achieved by analyzing the tariffs between 2015 and 2021. A forecast was made for a period of five years (2021 to 2026) using a non-linear autoregressive exogenous neural network (NARX-NN) time-series model. From the results obtained, the better NARX-NN model studied has a root mean squared error (RMSE) of 2.47 × 105 and a determination coefficient (R2) of 0.9661. The projection result also shows that the annual cost of energy consumed will increase for the projected years, with the year 2022 being the peak with an estimated annual cost of over ZAR 30 million (USD 2,076,268).
