Hydrogen network

The Chemical Engineering group is involved in each stages of the hydrogen network such as the production, the storage and the energy recovery. The production is studied thermochemically or from water dissociation by using the biomass gasification process or the iodine/sulfur thermochemical cycles. The storage of the gas is considered in solid form and the technologies studied are the gas hydrates and the storage by adsorption in Organic Frameworks materials type. Concerning the energy recovery, the research activities are essentially focussed on the hydrogen combustion.
