Scalable Bio-Hydrogen Production; a Novel Green Energy Technology
Molecular hydrogen (H2) is a promising clean energy carrier and a valuable commodity with over 60 million tons produced globally and used in many industrial technologies. The current industrial method of hydrogen production is consuming methane (a high-value fuel) and polluting the environment. Bio-hydrogen production by photosynthetic microbes represents an alternate green energy strategy that […] Read More >
System and Method for Determining Design Parameters for Marine Infrastructure
In the 60s-70s, a remarkable advancement was reached: instruments for directional wave measurements were developed. Data processing techniques based on potential wave theory enabled for the first time the evaluation of wave directional spectra. However, the irrotational potential theory lacks essential terms of waves and ambient shearing current interactions. By constructing suitable simulations, we proved […] Read More >
