Fundamentals of Hydrogen Production and Utilization in Fuel Cell Systems

Fundamentals of Hydrogen Production and Utilization in Fuel Cell Systems provides a comprehensive overview of the complex and interdisciplinary issues surrounding the use of hydrogen fuel cells in the global transportation system. With a particular emphasis on the commercialization and implementation of hydrogen fuel cells, the book deals with production, utilization, storage and safety, and addresses the application of fuel cells in the road, rail, maritime and aviation sectors. For each sector, the book discusses the fundamentals of fuel cells, the current technical, environmental, safety, and economic performance, the main barriers to implementation and how to address themThis book is an invaluable reference for researchers, graduate students and industry engineers across the fuel cells and transportation sector, but is also ideal for policymakers involved in the energy transition. - Offers the first account of hydrogen fuel cell systems that considers every sector: road, rail, maritime and aviation - Focuses on the practical utilization and implementation of hydrogen fuel cells in transportation systems - Summarizes the latest research and developments in hydrogen fuel cell powered transportation

Dr. Seyed Ehsan Hosseini PhD is an Asst. Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Arkansas Tech University (ATU). He established Combustion and Sustainable Energy Laboratory (ComSEL) at ATU working on several projects such as Hydrogen production and utilization, Fuel cell, Flameless combustion, small-scale combustion, Trap Vortex Combustion (TVC) and application of Phase Change Material (PCM) in the refrigeration and electronic systems. Before joining Arkansas Tech University, Dr. Hosseini was a postdoctoral researcher fellow in Combustion and Solar Energy Laboratory with the Department of Mechanical Engineering at San Diego State University
