Electrodialysis (ED) is an ionic exchange membrane process for separation of different components and species. In desalination, a large part of the energy is used to sustain a concentration difference between the solutions, but in the processes of exchanging in selective manners, the energy need is...

For liquid hydrogen (LH2) to become an energy carrier in energy commodity markets at scales comparable to for instance LNG, liquefier capacities must be scaled up several orders of magnitude. While state-of-the-art liquefiers can provide specific power requirements down to 10 kWh/kg, a long-term...

In this work, we apply the rate-based model of Taylor and Krishna to describe the separation of air in a low-pressure, packed distillation column. By use of numerical optimization, we identify the temperature profile for heat exchange with the column and its surroundings that minimizes the total...

Cubic equations of state have thus far yielded poor predictions of the thermodynamic properties of quantum fluids such as hydrogen, helium and deuterium at low temperatures. Furthermore, the shape of the optimal α functions of helium and hydrogen have been shown to not decay monotonically as for...
