Wind-Driven Direct Air Capture System Using 3D Printed, Passive, Amine-Loaded Contactors (WEDAC)

This project advanced the development of a novel wind-driven direct air capture (WEDAC) system for removing carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from the atmosphere. Our research focused on combining passive air contact with electrothermal desorption using specially designed carbon fiber modules, aiming to provide a scalable, low-cost, and energy-efficient alternative to conventional carbon capture systems.

High Efficiency and Transient Air Systems for Affordable Load-Following Heavy Duty Truck Fuel Cells

Hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicles are one of the potential paths to reducing vehicle emissions. An important subsystem of the hydrogen fuel cell system is an air handling system that provides the needed oxygen (in air) to react with hydrogen in the fuel cell stack for electric power generation. Today’s systems use an electric motor to power an air compressor that supplies oxygen to the fuel cell stack. This process requires significant electrical power and is the largest parasitic power loss in hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. In addition to parasitic power loss, hydrogen fuel cell systems often have reliability issues associated with the air handling system. Reliability is of significant concern for heavy duty applications (especially long-haul applications). This project aims to improve both the electrical power consumption and reliability of hydrogen fuel cell air handling systems to meet the needs of heavy duty on-highway vehicle applications.

Field-Focused Load-Leveled Dynamic Wireless Charging System for Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles offer much higher well-to-wheel efficiency than gasoline vehicles and can significantly reduce U.S. dependence on foreign oil, lower greenhouse gas emissions, improve local air quality, and support continued technological and economic growth. Despite these advantages, widespread adoption remains constrained by limitations in current battery technology, including high cost, limited driving range, and long charging times. One promising approach to address these challenges is to reduce onboard energy storage and instead deliver power wirelessly to vehicles while they are at a traffic stop or in motion.
