摘要： An organic hydride generation system includes an electrolytic bath, a main power supplier, an auxiliary power supplier, a detector to detect a voltage of the electrolytic bath, a potential of an anode electrode, or a potential of a cathode electrode, and a controller to control the supply of power to the electrolytic bath. When it is detected that the voltage or the potential has changed to a specified value during operation stop of the organic hydride generation system in which the power from the main power supplier is not supplied to the electrolytic bath, the controller controls the auxiliary power supplier so as to supply the power to the electrolytic bath.

摘要： In some aspects, the present disclosure pertains to methods for the electrochemical production of calcium silicate compounds in an electrochemical cell that comprises (a) a Ca-based electrode that comprises calcium metal or an inorganic calcium material, (b) an SiOx-based electrode that comprises a SiOx material, where x ranges from 1 to 2, and (c) a liquid electrolyte disposed between the Ca-based electrode and the SiOx-based electrode. In these methods, the electrochemical cell is operated under conditions such that calcium cations are produced at the Ca-based electrode and one or more calcium silicate (Ca—Si-oxide) compounds are produced at the SiOx-based electrode. In other aspects, the present disclosure pertains to systems for the electrochemical production of calcium silicate compounds.

摘要： Herein discussed is a method of producing hydrogen comprising introducing a metal smelter effluent gas or a basic oxygen furnace (BOF) effluent gas or a mixture thereof into an electrochemical (EC) reactor, wherein the EC reactor comprises a mixed-conducting membrane. In an embodiment, the method comprises introducing steam into the EC reactor on one side of the membrane, wherein the effluent gas is on the opposite side of the membrane, wherein the effluent gas and the steam are separated by the membrane and do not come in contact with each other.

摘要： A system and a method are provided for making hypochlorous acid using saltwater with bicarbonate compound. The system includes an electrolytic cell, a quantity of saltwater solution, and a quantity of bicarbonate compound. The quantity of saltwater solution is poured into the electrolytic cell and then undergoes an electrolytic process. As a result of the quantity of saltwater solution going through the electrolytic process, a hypochlorous acid solution is yielded. In order to ensure a pure hypochlorous acid solution is formed, the quantity of bicarbonate compound can be added into the electrolytic cell along with the quantity of saltwater solution before the electrolytic process or the quantity of bicarbonate compound can be added into the hypochlorous acid solution after the hypochlorous acid solution is yielded. This process adjusts the pH level of the hypochlorous acid solution, and thus, produces a purer hypochlorous acid solution.

摘要： A passive dual modulating regulator that responds to a pressure differential between a hydrogen-side and an oxygen-side of one or more proton-exchange membrane (PEM) cells is provided. The passive dual modulating regulator includes a flexible diaphragm that is clamped along its periphery between hemispherical chambers. A bi-directional valve assembly extends through the flexible diaphragm and includes opposing valve plugs for selectively closing the output ports of the respective hemispherical chambers. Large or sustained pressure imbalances between the hydrogen-side and the oxygen-side of a hydrogen generation system are avoided without active control inputs of any kind, and consequently a rupture of the PEM is entirely avoided.
