  • Patent number: 11820247
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a multi-input multi-output energy charging system to generate hydrogen, provide baseload energy to a facility, and provide electrical power to charge electric vehicles (EV). In an embodiment, a charging system includes a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system that generates electricity from one or more fuel inputs. One or more fuel inputs are renewable fuels. The charging system further includes a solid oxide electrolyzer cell (SOEC) system coupled to the SOFC system. The SOEC system generates hydrogen from the electricity received from the SOFC system and water input. The SOFC system facilitates the charging of an electric vehicle, storing charge in a battery, and providing electric power to a load from the generated electricity. The SOEC system facilitates refueling a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle from the generated hydrogen and storing the generated hydrogen in a hydrogen storage vessel.

  • Publication number: 20050226765
    Abstract: There is disclosed an analyte detection system comprising: and analyte analysis stage through which a condensed phase containing the analyte flows; nebuliser means into which the output of the analyte analysis stage is introduced, the nebuliser means producing an analyte containing aerosol; a flame based analyte detector, and means for introducing the analyte containing aerosol into said flame based anylte detector; in which the condensed phase produces no or negligible response from flame based analyte detector, and I) the system can operate at condensed phase flow rates of greater than 20 ?l min?1, preferably greater than 50 ?l min?1, most preferably greater than 100 ?l min?1; and/or ii) the means for introducing the analyte containing aerosol into said flame based detector comprises a spray chamber
