Methane Coupling Using Mixed Conducting Catalytic Ceramic Hollow Fibre Membrane Reactor. The Gas product industry is one of the most important economic sectors in Australia, employing 10000 people with market value of $ 100 billion per year from power generation and LNG export. However, there are increasing concerns over issues of the green house gases emission and petroleum dwindling. This project addresses the technology needs in converting natural gas to more useful chemicals via a more effic ....Methane Coupling Using Mixed Conducting Catalytic Ceramic Hollow Fibre Membrane Reactor. The Gas product industry is one of the most important economic sectors in Australia, employing 10000 people with market value of $ 100 billion per year from power generation and LNG export. However, there are increasing concerns over issues of the green house gases emission and petroleum dwindling. This project addresses the technology needs in converting natural gas to more useful chemicals via a more efficient and cleaner means of methane utilization. The project target is to make the natural gas resources in Australia to delivery high value products with considerable economic benefits and increased employment opportunities. Read moreRead less
Influence of hydrogen on metallic components for clean energy. Hydrogen (H) energy technology for a future H economy, and much of the world's current electricity generation by H-cooled turbogenerators, rely on the availability of affordable materials that are resistant to hydrogen embrittlement (HE), sudden mechanical failure owing to absorption of H atoms. This project will lead to better understanding of the HE resistance of commercial medium-strength steels for use in H pipelines and pressure ....Influence of hydrogen on metallic components for clean energy. Hydrogen (H) energy technology for a future H economy, and much of the world's current electricity generation by H-cooled turbogenerators, rely on the availability of affordable materials that are resistant to hydrogen embrittlement (HE), sudden mechanical failure owing to absorption of H atoms. This project will lead to better understanding of the HE resistance of commercial medium-strength steels for use in H pipelines and pressure vessels, and of the specific steels used in turbogenerator components. More efficient, cheaper and safer clean energy will be the result.Read moreRead less
Perovskite Asymmetric Hollow Fibres for Oxygen Separation in Clean Coal Energy Delivery. The coal industry is one of the most important economic sectors in Australia, employing 30000 people, whilst black coal is Australia's largest export worth around $24.5 billion. Energy security of supply is critical to Australia's social stability and economic growth, though Australia's reliance on coal for energy delivery is under strong scrutiny due to carbon mitigation. This project addresses the technolo ....Perovskite Asymmetric Hollow Fibres for Oxygen Separation in Clean Coal Energy Delivery. The coal industry is one of the most important economic sectors in Australia, employing 30000 people, whilst black coal is Australia's largest export worth around $24.5 billion. Energy security of supply is critical to Australia's social stability and economic growth, though Australia's reliance on coal for energy delivery is under strong scrutiny due to carbon mitigation. This project addresses the technology needs in tonnage oxygen separation towards a more efficient and cleaner means of generating energy. The project's benefits target at providing Australian consumers with affordable electricity in a decarbonised economy, enabling clean coal energy delivery to underpin the international competitiveness of the entire Australian economy.Read moreRead less
