Carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy (CF/EP) composites are attractive materials for hydrogen storage tanks due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and outstanding chemical resistance. However, cryogenic temperatures (CTs) have a substantial impact on the tensile strength and interfacial bonding of CF/EP materials, producing problems for their long-term performance and safety in hydrogen storage tank applications. This review paper investigates how low temperatures affect the tensile strength, modulus, and fracture toughness of CF/EP materials, as well as the essential interfacial interactions between carbon fibers (CFs) and the epoxy matrix (EP) in cryogenic environments. Material toughening techniques have evolved significantly, including the incorporation of nano-fillers, hybrid fibers, and enhanced resin formulations, to improve the durability and performance of CF/EP materials in cryogenic conditions. This review also assesses the hydrogen barrier properties of various composites, emphasizing the importance of reducing hydrogen permeability in order to retain material integrity. This review concludes by highlighting the importance of optimizing CF/EP composite design and fabrication for long-term performance and safety in hydrogen storage systems. It examines the prospects for using CF/EP composites in hydrogen storage tanks, as well as future research directions.

Performance improvement of magnesium-based hydrogen storage tanks by using carbon nanotubes addition and finned heat exchanger: Numerical simulation and experimental verification

One of the important tasks of improving the properties of metal hydride reactors is the design of system with optimized heat and mass transfer. Many works are devoted to the selection of the optimal heat exchanger for metal hydride hydrogen storage systems. At the same time, it is necessary to consider the composition of the metal hydride bed, which affects thermal conductivity as well. Little attention has been paid to the study of heat transfer properties in hydrogen storage systems with a heat exchanger and a metal hydride bed based on magnesium hydride and carbon nanotubes. In this work we used numerical simulation to determine the effectiveness of carbon nanotubes addition and heat exchangers with different fin number and geometries on high-temperature magnesium-based hydrogen storage tanks performance. It was found, that increasing the number of fins from three to five makes a smaller contribution in the temperature increasing as compared to the addition of three fins to the heater. The three solid, radial and complex fins have a similar effect on the average Mg/MgH2 bed temperature at 60 min. The most optimal fin number and geometry is three radial fins in terms of the efficiency and the volume it occupies. The addition of carbon nanotubes increases the average temperature of the Mg/MgH2 bed by 67 K for a reactor equipped with a heater without fins. Hydrogen storage system with three radial fins and Mg/MgH2 bed enhanced with carbon nanotubes provides an increase in the average bed temperature of about 180 K as compared to system without fins and nanotubes. This leads to a reduction in the hydrogen absorption time to reach 90% saturation by almost 63% for the three radial fins reactor with carbon nanotubes addition to the metal hydride bed. It has been confirmed that the addition of carbon nanotubes to Mg/MgH2 makes a significant contribution to the heat transfer in the metal hydride bed. In addition, it is shown that both an increase in the heat transfer area and the thermal conductivity coefficient leads to a significant improvement in the efficiency of the metal hydride reactor. In the future, the obtained results can be taken into account when designing hydrogen storage systems based on these materials.

A comprehensive analysis of wind power integrated with solar and hydrogen storage systems: Case study of Java's Southern coast

Wind and solar energy are vital to the global transition toward sustainable energy systems, driven by the need to reduce fossil fuel dependence, mitigate climate change, and enhance energy security. This study aims to optimize system performance by integrating hydrogen technology and addressing capacity shortages and excess energy. First, a comprehensive analysis of wind characteristics in a strategically important area to meet unaccomplished Indonesia's 2023 wind energy targets, focusing on Java's southern coast using wind speed data from the System Advisor Model (SAM), was conducted. Four scenarios are then evaluated: wind turbine (WT)-battery energy storage system (BESS), WT-photovoltaic (PV)-BESS, WT-fuel cell (FC)-electrolyzer (EL)-hydrogen tank (H2T), and WT-PV–FC–EL-H2T. Key metrics analyzed include excess energy, Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE), Net Present Cost (NPC), capacity shortage (CS), and electrolyzer full-load hours (EFH). Results show that average wind speeds reach 4.2 m/s in Pandeglang, with the WT–FC–EL-H2T system being the most reliable, exhibiting a 5% capacity shortage and 68.5% excess electricity. The WT-PV–FC–EL scenario is the most cost-effective, with a COE of $0.508/kWh and an NPC of $2.6 million. These findings provide valuable insights for improving sustainable energy infrastructure in the region.

Multi-scale fatigue damage analysis in filament-wound carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites for hydrogen storage tanks

This article presents the findings of a multi-scale experimental study on carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy composites (CFRP) used in lightweight hydrogen storage pressure vessels produced via filament winding. The research employs a combination of tension-tension load-controlled fatigue tests and high-resolution physical-chemical characterization and porosity quantification to assess the impact of porosity on mechanical performance. The findings demonstrate that porosity has a detrimental impact on mechanical properties, acting as nucleation sites for damage mechanisms such as crack initiation, fiber-matrix separation and fiber breakage. At the mesoscopic level, microdefects coalesce into transverse cracks and delamination, resulting in complex failure modes under cyclic loading. The results of the tensile tests demonstrated that the orientation of the fibers has a significant impact on the mechanical behavior of the material. The ±15° configuration demonstrated superior tensile strength and modulus, while the ±30° and multilayer configurations exhibited higher ductility. The results of the fatigue testing confirmed that fiber orientation has a significant impact on fatigue life, with the ±15° configuration proving to be the most resistant. Microscopic analysis indicated that pores act as damage initiation points, accelerating failure through matrix cracking, fiber-matrix debonding, and delamination. This study highlights the need for improved porosity control during manufacturing to enhance the durability of hydrogen storage systems. Additionally, it provides valuable insights for optimizing fiber orientation to improve fatigue performance in practical applications.

The non-covalent interaction between C3N and H2

Non-covalent interactions play an important role in numerous fields, particularly in physical hydrogen storage. The hydrogen storage properties of C3N are investigated by DFT calculations. The results indicated that H2 and C3N form physical adsorption. The electronic structure analysis demonstrates that both the covalent and electrostatic interactions between H2 and C3N are rather weak, while IRI analysis reveals that their interactions belong to non-valent interactions, and the further energy decomposition based on SAPT suggests that the sources of interaction energies differ for the two configurations TCR and TNR. For TCR, the induction energy is the primary contributor, for TNR, the electrostatic interaction dominates. Our comprehensive study not only enhances our understanding of the intricate interactions between H2 and C3N but also serves as a valuable guide for enhancing the adsorption strength in physical hydrogen storage systems.

Integrating Metal–Organic Frameworks and Polyamide 12 for Advanced Hydrogen Storage Through Powder Bed Fusion

This paper introduces a pioneering approach that combines ex situ synthesis with advanced manufacturing to develop ZIF-67-PA12 Nylon composites with mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs), with the goal of enhancing hydrogen storage systems. One method involves producing MOF-PA12 composite powders through an in situ process, which is then commonly used as a base powder for powder bed fusion (PBF) to fabricate various structures. However, developing the in situ MOF-PA12 matrix presents challenges, including limited spreadability and processability at higher MOF contents, as well as reduced porosity due to pore blockage by polymers, ultimately diminishing hydrogen storage capacity. To overcome these issues, PBF is employed to form PA12 powder into films, followed by the ex situ direct synthesis of ZIF-67 onto these substrates at loadings exceeding those typically used in conventional MMM composites. In this study, ZIF-67 mass loadings ranging from 2 to 30 wt.% were synthesized on both PA12 powder and printed film substrates, with loadings on printed PA12 films extended up to 60 wt.%. ZIF-67-PA12-60(f) demonstrated a hydrogen capacity of 0.56 wt.% and achieved 1.53 wt.% for ZIF-67-PA12-30(p); in comparison, PA12 exhibited a capacity of 0.38 wt.%. This was undertaken to explore a range of ZIF-67 Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) to assess their impact on the properties of the composite, particularly for hydrogen storage applications. Our results demonstrate that ex situ-synthesized ZIF-67-PA12 composite MMMs, which can be used as a final product for direct application and do not require the use of in situ pre-synthesized powder for the PBF process, not only retain significant hydrogen storage capacities, but also offer advantages in terms of repeatability, cost-efficiency, and ease of production. These findings highlight the potential of this innovative composite material as a practical and efficient solution for hydrogen storage, paving the way for advancements in energy storage technologies.

Estimation of hydrogen solubility in aqueous solutions using machine learning techniques for hydrogen storage in deep saline aquifers

The porous underground structures have recently attracted researchers’ attention for hydrogen gas storage due to their high storage capacity. One of the challenges in storing hydrogen gas in aqueous solutions is estimating its solubility in water. In this study, after collecting experimental data from previous research and eliminating four outliers, nine machine learning methods were developed to estimate the solubility of hydrogen in water. To optimize the parameters used in model construction, a Bayesian optimization algorithm was employed. By examining error functions and plots, the LSBoost method with R² = 0.9997 and RMSE = 4.18E-03 was identified as the most accurate method. Additionally, artificial neural network, CatBoost, Extra trees, Gaussian process regression, bagged trees, regression trees, support vector machines, and linear regression methods had R² values of 0.9925, 0.9907, 0.9906, 0.9867, 0.9866, 0.9808, 0.9464, and 0.7682 and RMSE values of 2.13E-02, 2.43E-02, 2.44E-02, 2.83E-02, 2.85E-02, 3.40E-02, 5.68E-02, and 1.18E-01, respectively. Subsequently, residual error plots were generated, indicating the accurate performance of the LSBoost model across all ranges. The maximum residual error was − 0.0252, and only 4 data points were estimated with an error greater than ± 0.01. A kernel density estimation (KDE) plot for residual errors showed no specific bias in the models except for the linear regression model. To investigate the impact of temperature, pressure, and salinity parameters on the model outputs, the Pearson correlation coefficients for the LSBoost model were calculated, showing that pressure, temperature, and salinity had values of 0.8188, 0.1008, and − 0.5506, respectively, indicating that pressure had the strongest direct relationship, while salinity had an inverse relationship with hydrogen solubility. Considering the results of this research, the LSBoost method, alongside approaches like state equations, can be applied in real-world scenarios for underground hydrogen storage. The findings of this study can help in a better understanding of hydrogen solubility in aqueous solutions, aiding in the optimization of underground hydrogen storage systems.

Surface interaction changes in minerals for underground hydrogen storage: Effects of CO2 cushion gas

Hydrogen (H2) offers a promising solution for the energy transition but storing it on a large scale at the surface poses significant technical and environmental challenges. Underground formations provide a practical alternative for large-scale H2 storage, yet understanding H2 behavior under various subsurface conditions is crucial for optimizing storage capacity and efficiency, which are influenced by rock properties such as wettability. This study addresses the gap in literature regarding the wettability of different minerals when CO2 was injected with H2 as a cushion gas. We examined the wettability of various mineral rocks in realistic subsurface circumstances. A series of wettability measurements were carried out using a captive drop instrument under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions, employing seven different minerals.Our findings reveal that mixed gas contact angles are significantly affected by temperature and pressure, with CO2 playing a crucial role in minimizing hydrogen trapping and enhancing CO2 capture in UHS and Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) projects. Higher CO2 mole fractions lead in increased contact angles due to the enhanced density and solubility of the gases, especially in basalt. Increasing the CO2 mole fraction from 25 % to 75 % at a constant pressure of 100 bar and temperature of 60 °C caused the contact angle of basalt with brine to rise from 54° to 86°. Pressure has a more pronounced effect on contact angle changes than temperature. For quartz rock in a 50 % H2 + 50 % CO2 mixture, the contact angle changes by 18° when the temperature increases from 20 °C to 80 °C at a constant pressure of 70 bar in distilled water. In contrast, the contact angle changes by 36° when the pressure increases from 10 bar to 100 bar at a constant temperature of 40 °C.These insights are essential for selecting suitable rock formations for underground gas storage, thereby supporting the advancement of hydrogen storage technologies. Furthermore, utilizing CO2 improves technical performance and environmental sustainability while also supporting international efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Overall, our results offer insightful information about the planning and operation of underground hydrogen storage systems, emphasizing the potential of CO2 to increase storage effectiveness and support carbon sequestration initiatives.

Numerical Modeling of Metal Hydride-Phase Change Material Hydrogen Storage Systems with Increased Heat Exchange surface area

Coupling Metal Hydrides (MH) with Phase Change Materials (PCM) provides a promising way of storing hydrogen without using any active systems to control the MH temperature during cycling. In this study, we perform numerical assessments on the performance of cylindrical MH-PCM storage systems with varying geometrical configurations. We investigate the ab/desorption kinetics in a straight cylindrical geometry (case A), where the PCM surrounds the MH. Its cycle time and gravimetric density for the absorption of 1.04kWh are 2,200 s and 0.30%. We then investigate two improved configurations, namely the addition of fins to the external surface of the MH and within the PCM domain (case B), and the containment of the MH powder into a helix-shaped tube immersed in the PCM (case C). Number and thickness of fins are also varied to assess their impact. Compared to case A, the helix-shaped design is 49% and 40% faster in absorption and desorption, respectively, whereas the finned geometry is 28.9% and 30% faster. The gravimetric density is 0.27% and 0.62% in case B and C, respectively.

Sustainable rubber nanocomposites for hydrogen sealings: Impact of carbon nano-onions and bio-based plasticizer

Additives play a crucial role in modifying and enhancing the properties of rubbers, improving mechanical strength, thermal stability, and chemical resistance to make them more suitable for various applications. The rubber industry faces challenges related to high resource consumption and toxic emissions, which are further impacted by the use of performance-enhancing additives. In hydrogen storage systems, tailored additives are required for rubbers to withstand elevated temperatures and high pressures, preventing hydrogen-induced swelling, a major cause of sealing failure. Herein, a novel form of carbonaceous material, carbon nano-onions (CNOs), and the bio-based plasticizer additive epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) are utilized in conventional silica-filled nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) nanocomposites to develop low-carbon manufacturing high pressure hydrogen resistant O-rings for sealing applications. The results reveal that the incorporation of CNOs increases the crosslinking density (vc), assisted by ESO, in silica-filled NBR nanocomposites. While the conventional adipate-based plasticizer and ESO were found to be susceptible to high pressure hydrogen exposures, ESO demonstrated sustained compressive sealing properties with increase in von-Mises stress and in elevated thermo-oxidative conditions over time. The results of the life cycle assessment (LCA) recommend ESO for low-carbon manufacturing in rubber processing over conventional plasticizer.

Furthermore, the elastic constants, moduli, and anisotropy are also calculated for the observed materials. The Possion and Pugh ratios indicate these compounds exhibit ductile behaviour and significant anisotropy. Therefore, large values of hydrogen capacities, stabilities, and extraordinary physical behaviour make them important for hydrogen storage systems.

Hydrogen Confinement in Hexagonal Boron Nitride Bubbles Using UV Laser Illumination.

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) bubbles are of significant interest to micro-scale hydrogen storage thanks to their ability to confine hydrogen gas molecules. Previous reports of h-BN bubble creation from grown h-BN films require electron beams under vacuum, making integrating with other experimental setups for hydrogen production impractical. Therefore, in this study, the formation of h-BN bubbles is demonstrated in a 20nm h-BN film grown on a sapphire substrate with a 213nm UV laser beam. Using atomic force microscopy, it is shown that longer illumination time induces larger h-BN bubbles up to 20µm with higher density. It is also demonstrated that h-BN bubbles do not collapse for more than 6 months after their creation. The internal pressure and gravimetric storage capacity of h-BN bubbles are reported. A maximum internal pressure of 41MPa and a gravimetric storage capacity of 6% are obtained. These findings show that h-BN bubbles can be a promising system for long-term hydrogen storage.

Numerical investigations into the comparison of hydrogen and gas mixtures storage within salt caverns

Salt caverns, long used for natural gas storage to manage peak loads, are being considered for hydrogen storage as part of the shift towards greener fuels. This transition necessitates re-evaluating heat and fluid transport to ensure the suitability of storage sites. A comparative analysis between current (natural gas and compressed air) and prospective (hydrogen and gas mixtures) storage systems was conducted using a standardized historical cycle over thirty days to identify trends. Hydrogen exhibited the lowest cumulative temperature and pressure increase (17 °C, 0.40 MPa), but the greatest variability per cycle, with an average range of 26 °C and 1.6 MPa. This higher fluctuation could potentially limit its use in short-term cycles compared to natural gas. Moreover, hydrogen's storage capacity was found to be a third of natural gas's, at only 6.6 GWh for the cavern design and specified pressure limits. These findings indicate that while hydrogen presents a greener alternative, its high variability and lower storage capacity pose challenges for its use in existing infrastructure, highlighting the need for further research to optimize its storage and utilisation in energy systems.

Influence of nitrogen cushion gas in 3-phase surface phenomena for hydrogen storage in gas condensate reservoirs

Recent research has primarily focused on 2-phase systems for hydrogen storage in porous media. However, the impact of cushion gases mixed with hydrocarbon fluids, such as n-octane, in depleted condensate-type reservoirs remains poorly understood. This study addresses the gap by evaluating the effects of pressure (500–3000 psi), temperature (30–70 °C), and NaCl brine salinities (2–20 wt%) by measuring the contact angles (CAs) between n-octane and substrates (for Quartz and Wolf camp shale) in brine, and interfacial tensions (IFTs) between brine and n-octane while injecting pure H2 gas (base case) and a mixture of 60% H2 and 40% cushion gas (30% N2 + 5% CH4 + 5% CO2). The CA results revealed that pressure had a relatively minor impact on the system with pure H2 injection, compared to temperature and salinity. However, when 40% cushion gas was added, the CA increased with pressure and salinity but decreased with rising temperature. It was observed that CAs for pure H2 gas were lower than those for the H2 + cushion gas mixture. Also, the equilibrium IFTs showed a consistent reduction with increasing pressure and temperature, while they increased with higher salinity. Comparing the IFTs of the 3-phase (H2 + cushion)/n-octane/brine system to those of the 2-phase (H2 + cushion)/brine system revealed that n-octane could effectively reduce the system's IFT by approximately 33%. Overall, this study provides valuable data for hydrogen storage in depleted gas condensate reservoirs containing hydrocarbon fluids like n-octane.
