A 0D model for the comparative analysis of hydrogen carriers in ship’s integrated energy systems
Hydrogen carriers are attractive alternative fuels for the shipping sectors. They are zero-emission, have high energy densities, and are safe, available, and easy to handle. Sodium borohydride, potassium borohydride, dibenzyltoluene,n-ethylcarbazole, and ammoniaborane are interesting hydrogen carriers, with high theoretical energy…

Hazard identification of hydrogen based alternative fuels onboard ships
It is essential to use alternative fuels if we are to reach the emission reduction targets set by the IMO. Hydrogen carriers are classified as zero-emission, while having a higher energy density (including packing factor) than pure hydrogen. They are…

Towards hydrogen-fueled marine vessels using Solid Hydrogen Carriers
Solid hydrogen carriers, such as sodium borohydride or potassium borohydride, are seen as promising options to enable the use of hydrogen as a fuel for marine vessels, because of their favourable gravimetric and volumetric energy density compared to compressed or…
