10 RTI International to develop recyclable H 2 storage technology R esearchers at North Carolina-based RTI International have been awarded a $1.6m grant from the Department of Energy to develop a hydrogen storage technology that will provide a stable and recyclable on-board hydrogen source for FCVs. The project will investigate the use of aminoborane (H 3 BNH 3 ), which is a stable solid at ambient temperatures but decomposes on heating to release 19.6% of its weight as pure hydrogen.
Over the next four years, RTI researchers, led by Dr Ashok Damle, will design an on-board fuel system for hydrogen powered FCVs, and develop a cost-effective manufacturing process for recycling the storage material once the hydrogen content is depleted.
Collaborating on the project are the State Scientific Research Center (GNIIChTEOS, Moscow) of the Russian Federation, which will provide expertise in the synthesis of the aminoborane storage material, and ATK/Thiokol of Utah, which will provide industry support for production processes that could lead to commercial use.
