Currently, our society faces a pressing challenge: global warming. The solution lies in the energy transition, which replaces fossil fuels with clean sources. This requires a global effort across all sectors, including shipping. While a significant portion of shipping relies on polluting fuels, the European Union’s Green Deal aims for climate...

Verbaan, Floris (author)
This master's thesis addresses the urgent need to reduce the marine industry's environmental impact. Van Oord, a marine player, aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. The study investigates integrating methanol-fueled Solid Oxide Fuel Cells and batteries into the cable laying vessel NEXUS's power plant.<br/><br/>The research shows that...

Feasibility improvement of Solid Oxide Electrolysis (SOE) is required to accelerate technology development. The study aims to determine whether and under what conditions reversible operation can improve the techno-economic feasibility of a large-scale open-system SOE. The feasibility of reversibility is assessed under various scenarios and...

With climate change is an undeniable reality, hydrogen based energy solutions will become increasingly important for specific aspects of economies. To meet emission targets, Solid Oxide Electrolysers (SOECs) and Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) will become an increasingly useful part of global energy infrastructure. Identifying the economically...

Hirs Alvarez, Aldo (author)
Currently, the energy transition is a topic for discussion and many organizations are taking measures to reduce the effects of climate change. Armed forces are exempt of these new regulations on the grounds of national security, but some have already started taking steps to reduce the amount of harmful emissions. Due to the high efficiency and...

Ammonia (NH3) may reduce CO2 emissions from the marine industry as it is carbon-free and more energy-dense than hydrogen or batteries. Pure ammonia exhibits poor combustion characteristics, so several researchers have already operated small-scale internal combustion engines (ICEs) with ammonia-hydrogen blends. However, nitrogen oxides NOx and...

Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that are conventionally used to convert the chemical energy of fuels into electricity while producing heat as a byproduct. High temperature fuel cells such as molten carbonate fuel cells and solid oxide fuel cells produce significant amounts of heat that can be used for internal reforming of fuels such...

Uva, Pietro (author)
The constant pressure on the maritime sector to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions has led the shipping industry to search for alternatives, such as zero-emissions propulsion systems, which would allow meeting the 2050 target imposed by International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulation. Fuel cells have demonstrated to substantially...

Henderik, Luc (author)
As a result of the Paris Agreement, energy technologies require to shift from fossil fuel based to carbon neutral. In 2015, the maritime sector was responsible for 2.6 % of the global CO2 emissions. The combination of the solid oxide fuel cell fueled by sustainable synthesized ammonia is seen as a potential solution to<br/>reduce emissions....

The world is moving towards a cleaner future. With the increasingly stringent emission regulation in maritime field and the limitation of marine diesel engine systems, the shipbuilders may start to seek cleaner solutions rather than modifying the currently prevailing internal combustion engine systems (ICE). According to previous researches, a...

The removal of nitrogen from wastewater is a costly and high energy demanded process. Not only in wastewater treatment facilities but also in the livestock sector nitrogen removal is costly. In this study the removal of nitrogen from wastewater by converting to ammonia to be fed as a fuel to a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) is treated. Ammonia is...
