Composite High-Pressure Tanks for CNG and Hydrogen (H₂)

Composite High-Pressure Tanks for CNG  and Hydrogen (H₂)

Abstract

A high-pressure gas storage tank made from composite materials, including carbon fiber, resin, and plastic, is designed for storing compressed natural gas (CNG) or hydrogen. This type of tank is classified as a Type IV high-pressure vessel. In this research, it is designed to operate at a pressure of 250 bar for the transportation of compressed natural gas.

Objective

การบรรจุก๊าซที่ความดันสูงต้องใช้บรรจุภัณฑ์​ที่มีความแข็งแรง​ การใช้ถังที่ผลิตจากโลหะถูกนำมาใช้ในช่วงแรกๆ​ แต่ปัญหาที่ตามมาคือน้ำหนักมากทำให้สิ้นเปลืองเชื้อเพลิงในกรณีที่นำไปติดตั้งบนยานพาหนะ​ จึงเกิดการพัฒนาถังความดันที่พัฒนาจากวัสดุประกอบขึ้นซึ่งจะช่วยลดน้ำหนักของบรรจุภัณฑ์​และการกัดกร่อนเกิดขึ้นน้อย

Garbage sorting Systems

The presented project topic is Garbage Sorting Systems. The purpose is to study the operation and develop a waste sorting system that can automatically detect the type of waste using a proximity sensor to separate the types of metal and non-metal waste, as well as an ultrasonic sensor to check the amount of waste in the bin. If the amount of waste exceeds the specified amount, the system will send a notification to the communication device connected to the system, such as a smartphone or computer. The operation of the system is designed to increase the efficiency of waste management, reduce the burden of manual waste sorting, and promote recycling. This system can be applied in various places, such as educational institutions or public places, to help reduce the amount of waste that is not properly separated and increase the opportunity to reuse waste.
