In order to enable a high compatibility of this new type of fuel in the already existing infrastructure, a modified oxymethylene ether (OME) synthesis based on technical alcohol mixtures, i.e., C<sub>4</sub>-based alcohol mixtures of isomers, was evaluated and the new compounds were thoroughly characterized. The synthesized compounds can be used as neat fuel or as blending component for fossil or paraffinic diesel fuels. The modification of OME offers the possibility to adjust desired properties. This versatility could also be used to synthesize compounds for the chemical sector according to its respective requirements, such as applications as solvents, plasticizers, or additives.</p>","PeriodicalId":9912,"journal":{"name":"Chemie Ingenieur Technik","volume":"97 5","pages":"495-507"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cite.202400159","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143909676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The researchers are developing various technologies for transport and application of liquid hydrogen and are demonstrating their benefits for the development of a sustainable and efficient hydrogen transport infrastructure in Germany. The focus of AppLHy! is on the supply, storage, and transport of liquid hydrogen (LH₂). This offers great potential within a sustainable hydrogen economy as a potentially CO<sub>2</sub>-free vector with high gravimetric energy density and intrinsic purity. In addition, synergy effects between cryogenic LH₂ and high-temperature superconductors (HTS) emerge, and the “cooling power” of LH₂ can also be used for other processes.</p>","PeriodicalId":9912,"journal":{"name":"Chemie Ingenieur Technik","volume":"97 3","pages":"145-155"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cite.202400075","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143565306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
