The samples developed could be placed in high pressure cylinders.

This will lead to an increased amount of stored hydrogen at lower pressures.

This could achieve the possibility of creating a safer and efficient hydrogen storage system.

We are focused on achieving a high adsorption capacity at room temperature, currently we are expecting about ~5 wt.% of hydrogen with Titanium decorations.

Recharge time of these systems is estimated to be less compared to metal hydrides (10-20 min) as adsorption is mainly due to physisorption.

No temperature change required for discharge as these systems are estimated to be pressure driven.

The relative compactness and the relatively low charging pressure as compared with compressed gas cylinders, at this time represents a practical solution.

Determine the effects of strain, edge and various defects on H2 storage in multilayers of graphene sheets with added functional groups and metal decorations.

Conduct experimental program to prepare samples for hydrogen storage based on the computational and numerical outcomes.

Adsorption isotherms of the prepared samples at Dr. Anil’s Lab at IIT Tirupati.

Fabricate high-pressure Sieverts' type volumetric setup and measure adsorption capacity of prepared samples. (Almost all parts procured, and setup will be fabricated soon)
