A photocatalytic cell of the disclosure is a photocatalytic cell that contains a photocatalyst sheet and an electrolyte. The photocatalyst sheet includes a carrier sheet provided with multiple fibers bonded thereto, and multiple photocatalyst particles supported or fixed on the carrier sheet, the multiple photocatalyst particles include tungsten oxide particles, and a mass of the multiple photocatalyst particles per unit area of the photocatalyst sheet is 20 g/m2 or more.

Structured catalyst arranged for catalyzing an endothermic reaction of a feed gas, said structured catalyst comprising a macroscopic structure of electrically conductive material, said macroscopic structure supporting a ceramic coating, wherein said ceramic coating supports a catalytically active material, wherein the electrically conductive material at least partly is a composite in the form of a homogenous mixture of an electrically conductive metallic material and a ceramic material, wherein the macroscopic structure at least partly is composed of two or more materials with different resistivities.

One or more reactants are flowed into thermal contact with a heating element in a reactor for a first time period. During a first part of a heating cycle, the one or more reactants are provided with a first temperature by heating with the heating element, such that one or more thermochemical reactions is initiated. The one or more thermochemical reactions includes pyrolysis, thermolysis, synthesis, hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, hydrogenolysis, or any combination thereof. The first heating element operates by Joule heating and has a porous construction that allows gas to flow therethrough. During a second part of the heating cycle, the one or more reactants are provided with a second temperature less than the first temperature, for example, by de-energizing the heating element. A duration of the first time period is equal to or greater than a duration of the heating cycle, which is less than five seconds.

An installation for an aircraft having a tank delimiting a volume with a high point, through a wall of the tank, an evacuation channel arranged near the high point, a container in which dihydrogen is present and which is arranged in the volume, and a catalyzer configured to catalyze an oxidation reaction of the dihydrogen with the air in the tank, wherein the catalyzer is fastened at the evacuation channel.

A radial flow processing device includes a body with an inner chamber, a pair of inner and outer concentric tubes extending into the body, and a processing disk containing a central opening through which the inner tube extends, the disk being connected with the inner tube. The body has a top wall, a bottom wall, and at least one side wall which define the inner chamber. The bottom wall, top wall, or both, contain at least one opening through which at least one tube extends. A diameter of the inner tube is less than a diameter of the outer tube such that there is a space between both tubes, and a diameter of the disk is less than a width of the body.

The present invention relates, in general, to a system and method for focusing gas distribution through at least one three-dimensionally (3D) printed lattice heating elements within an electric catalyst unit to promote ammonia dissociation. The present invention allows gaseous ammonia to be continuously heated under turbulence as it flows through non-linear paths within a 3D printed lattice heating element. The lattice structure of the heating element provides a balance between surface area and heat dissipation, allowing the heating elements to reach a suitable temperature to perform ammonia dissociation, but which are not oversaturated with heat which could result in failure or melting of the heating element.
