Portable X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry Capabilities for In Situ Analysis
Transportable X-ray fluorescence (PXRF) instrumentation has a few exact analytical features for the in situ research of samples within the box. those services were prolonged in recent times via the ongoing improvement of stable country detectors, floor fastened electronics, electronic sign processing know-how, Li-ion batteries mixed with a decision of rugged sealed radioisotope resources or miniature X-ray tubes that offer light-weight hand held units.
Modern Developments in Energy, Combustion and Spectroscopy. In Honor of S. S. Penner
This compendium of technical articles is devoted to Professor Stanford Solomon Penner at the social gathering of his seventieth birthday. As some of the most widespread scientists of our instances, he has been rather instrumental in advancing the sphere of combustion technology whereas at the same time he has built quantitative spectroscopy into a major engineering self-discipline, and can also be a number one overseas specialist on power concerns.

University of Alabama. and University of California-Davis. Status of Hydrogen Storage The current status of hydrogen storage in temis of gravimetric storage capacity and necessary hydrogen release temperature range is shown in Figure 5. Figure 5: Current status of hydrogen storage in materials. In Figure 5. it is important to remember that only the material capacities are shown. Hydrogen storage systems will have lower capacities than the materials, due to the weights of system-related components.
At this point, it is important to consider the automobile industry, which is the world’s biggest commercial client for gasoline (the current, most common energy storage system). Among new technologies currently available, the hydrogen fuel cell seems to be the most promising. It consists of a battery that consumes hydrogen to produce electricity, and produces water as exhaust. Most car manufacturers have directed their R&D resources into developing electrical vehicles based on this technology. Although Fuel Cell cars are more efficient than hydrogen combustion vehicles, they have two important disadvantages: First, the average autonomous range of this type of vehicle is inferior to that of one powered by gasoline due to hydrogen storage limitations; Second, they can’t be bivalent (meaning they can work only with hydrogen).
Of Pittsburgh, Univ. of Utah, and NIST. The nano-confinement of hydrides in framework materials such as carbon aerogels is being studied as a means to improve the kinetics, hydrogen capacity, and cycleability of the hydrides. g. a 60-fold increase in desorption kinetics for LiBH4). Participants in this work are HRL, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), UTRC and SNL. Challenges are to maintain high gravimetric and volumetric capacities for the confined materials, and to obtain high hydride loading into the confining framework, while maintaining its structural integrity.
