TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined a test procedure to study the ageing of LiPO (lithium polymer) batteries through the EIS (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) technique.

TL;DR: A broad range of scientific and engineering disciplines are involved in a stack design, including thermal self-sustainability and efficiency, sealing technologies, manifold design, electrical connections and cell performance optimisation as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review biochar characteristics and study early applications so far demonstrated and carried out, for the use of biochar in the anaerobic digestion processes, by acting both as support for bacteria colonies, conductor for electron transfer among species, sorbent for indirect inhibitors, and reactant in biochars labile carbon methanization.

TL;DR: This study reports the implications of using spent coffee hydrochar as substrate for anaerobic digestion (AD) processes by investigating their biomethane potential in AD process inoculated with cow manure.

TL;DR: In this article, a Model Predictive Control (MPC) logic based on weather forecasts has been applied to the analysis of power management in a domestic off-grid system, which is laid out as the integration of renewable energy conversion devices (Photovoltaic, PV), a high efficiency energy conversion programmable system (a Fuel Cell, FC) and an electrochemical energy storage (batteries).
