  • a membrane reactor for hydrogen storage and transport system using cyclohexane Methylcyclohexane mixtures
    Desalination, 2008
    Co-Authors: Naotsugu Itoh, Shunsuke Watanabe, Takafumi Sato, K Kawasoe, Tomoya Tsuji
    Abstract:

    Abstract Cyclohexane is recognized to be one of the promising hydrogen storage materials but it is pointed out that its freezing point (ca. 6.5°C) is too high to use in the cold district. In this study, therefore, the mixtures of cyclohexane with Methylcyclohexane as a hybrid chemical hydride were proposed to lower the freezing point. The hydrogen recovery from the mixtures was testified by being dehydrogenated with a palladium membrane reactor up to 300°C and 4 bar, in which hydrogen generated was selectively separated from the catalyst-packed bed through a palladium membrane and obtained as purified hydrogen on the permeate side. An addition of 20 mol% Methylcyclohexane to cyclohexane resulted in about 40°C decrease in the freezing point. The increase in conversion became larger in a region of high reaction pressure because a larger pressure difference increased the amount of hydrogen separated. The conversion of Methylcyclohexane was higher than that of cyclohexane at the same condition. In the dehydrogenation of the mixtures, each conversion was found not to be affected by the other very much. In conclusion, the mixtures of Methylcyclohexane and cyclohexane can be a hybrid type of chemical hydride, which will be available as a liquid hydrogen carrier at −30°C.

  • Hydrogen solubility of mixed naphthenes and aromatics for a new hydrogen storage medium in fuel cell system
    Fluid Phase Equilibria, 2007
    Co-Authors: Tomoya Tsuji, Toshihiko Hiaki, Naotsugu Itoh
    Abstract:

    Abstract Hydrogen solubility was measured for four equimolar binary solvent mixtures, benzene + toluene, cyclohexane + Methylcyclohexane, benzene + Methylcyclohexane and cyclohexane + toluene, and an equimolar quaternary, benzene + cyclohexane + Methylcyclohexane + toluene, in the pressure range from 1.077 to 4.580 MPa at 303.15 K. The hydrogen solubility increased linearly with the pressure for all systems. The binary interaction parameters, in a mixing rule of Peng–Robinson (PR) equation of state, were determined for benzene + toluene and cyclohexane + Methylcyclohexane from the vapor–liquid equilibrium data of literature, and that for benzene + Methylcyclohexane and cyclohexane + toluene from the hydrogen solubility data in the binary solvent mixture. Using the optimized binary interaction parameters, PR equation well predicted the experimental data for the quaternary.

  • Hydrogen storage using cyclohexane-Methylcyclohexane mixtures available in a freezing region
    2006
    Co-Authors: Shunsuke Watanabe, Tomoya Tsuji, Takafumi Sato, Naotsugu Itoh
    Abstract:

    The mixtures of mehtylcyclohexane and cyclohexane were proposed as another chemical hydride. Addition of 10mol% Methylcyclohexane to cyclohexane could lead to about 25 oC depressions in the solidification temperature of cyclohexane, which means that the freezing point become as low as ca. -20 oC. Further, Methylcyclohexane and a mixture consisting of 10mol% Methylcyclohexane and 90mol% cyclohexane were dehydrogenated using a membrane reactor, where the evolved hydrogen was selectively separated from the catalyst-packed reaction zone through a palladium membrane that is impervious to any gases except hydrogen. In any case, both the decrease of feed rate and the increase of the pressure of reaction side increased the amount of hydrogen recovered through membrane in the range of 250 – 300 O C and 2-4bar.

  • hydrogen solubility in a chemical hydrogen storage medium aromatic hydrocarbon cyclic hydrocarbon and their mixture for fuel cell systems
    Fluid Phase Equilibria, 2005
    Co-Authors: Tomoya Tsuji, Yoshiko Shinya, Toshihiko Hiaki, Naotsugu Itoh
    Abstract:

    Abstract A synthetic type apparatus was designed to measure hydrogen solubility in four pure aromatic or cyclic hydrocarbons, benzene, cyclohexane, toluene, and Methylcyclohexane, and two equimolar binary mixtures, benzene + cyclohexane, and Methylcyclohexane + toluene. The experimental temperature was 303.15 K, and the pressure range from 0.887 to 4.827 MPa. The hydrogen solubility increased linearly with the pressure following the Henry's law. The hydrogen solubility in benzene was smaller than that in cyclohexane. Similarly, the solubility in toluene was smaller than in Methylcyclohexane. In the measurement for the mixtures, the mole ratio of benzene:cyclohexane and Methylcyclohexane:toluene was set to 1:1. The hydrogen solubility in the equimolar mixtures was lower than that in pure cyclic hydrocarbon, cyclohexane or Methylcyclohexane. The experimental solubility data in pure hydrocarbons were correlated with the Peng–Robinson (PR) equation of state using van der Waals one fluid mixing rule. Using binary interaction parameters in the mixing rule, the hydrogen solubility in the mixtures was predicted well.
