Solid H2, Nanopowders
The Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research (KISR) announced on Sunday the launch of the country's first electric vehicle powered by solid hydrogen fuel emitted from Nanopowders.
This came in a press release, after a visit of KISR Director General, Samira Al-Sayed Omar to the program of nanotechnology and advanced materials at the Institute, where she looked at the prototype of the electric vehicle powered by hydrogen fuel.
The program was led by Osama Al-Sayegh, Executive Director of the Institute's Energy and Construction Research Center, as saying that the Center's Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials Program has successfully launched the experimental prototype of an electric vehicle powered by solid hydrogen fuel emitted from Nanopowders.
"These powders were prepared by the Center's compound for chemically induced magnesium hydride adsorption by ultra-smooth granules of the glass alloy (ZrNiPd)," Al-Sayegh added.
