“…The gaseous state of the fuel at ambient conditions in combination with the low density, wide flammability and invisibility of the gas as well as its flames require amended measures to guarantee a safety level equivalent to conventional fuels. When properly taking the unique properties into account by facility designers, engineers and operators, hydrogen can be as safe as, or safer than, gasoline or diesel fuel [188].…”

“…The choice may depend on the application, as the optimum compression ratio for highest engine efficiency might be different from the optimum for highest power output [188]. Compression ratios used in H 2 ICEs range from 7.5:1 [185] to 14.5:1 [163].…”

a b s t r a c tThe threat posed by climate change and the striving for security of energy supply are issues high on the political agenda these days. Governments are putting strategic plans in motion to decrease primary energy use, take carbon out of fuels and facilitate modal shifts.Taking a prominent place in these strategic plans is hydrogen as a future energy carrier. A number of manufacturers are now leasing demonstration vehicles to consumers using hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines (H 2 ICEs) as well as fuel cell vehicles. Developing countries in particular are pushing for H 2 ICEs (powering two-and three-wheelers as well as passenger cars and buses) to decrease local pollution at an affordable cost.This article offers a comprehensive overview of H 2 ICEs. Topics that are discussed include fundamentals of the combustion of hydrogen, details on the different mixture formation strategies and their emissions characteristics, measures to convert existing vehicles, dedicated hydrogen engine features, a state of the art on increasing power output and efficiency while controlling emissions and modeling.

“…For planning purposes, there needs to be a safety standard in place that is equal to traditional fuel safety measures concerning flammability, density. the gaseous formal of the fuel at ambient circumstances in composition with the extensive flammability, small density and disappearance of the gas in addition to its flames need modified processes [13]. The alteration of resident codes and abiding by acceptable levels for hydrogen plants require challenging safety measures.…”

As a sustainable and renewable energy carrier for transition, hydrogen is considered as a key future fuel for the low carbon energy systems. During the past few decades, attention has been given to the conversion of waste materials, including plastics to the production of hydrogen. Studies in this field are of great importance because they resolve numerous problems brought about by plastic waste with other forms of waste. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is one of the major products of plastic waste which constitutes a major threat to environmental conservation efforts and harms living organism. Phenol has been chosen in this study as a solvent for PET to produce hydrogen because of unwanted liquid product in the bio-oil. This research investigates catalytic steam reforming of phenol with dissolved PET for hydrogen production. The aim of this study was the review of a highly active and stable catalyst for hydrogen production from steam reforming waste products. The analysis of product composition indicated that steam reforming of PET-phenol generally produced a high amount of aliphatic branched-chain compounds, together with a moderate amount of cyclic compounds. The reaction conditions also led to the alkylation of phenol by the reforming products from the PET-phenol solution with and without the catalyst. In conclusion, this study explored new ways to use l product derived from waste plastic materials. It provides a promising clean technology, which employed polyethylene terephthalate waste dissolved in phenol (as a solvent) for hydrogen production.
