Super hygroscopic nanofibrous membrane-based moisture pump for solar-driven indoor dehumidification
Desiccants are important for dehumidification, but application is hindered by limited hygroscopicity, recyclability, and energy efficiency. Here, the authors report a moisture pump comprised of an electrospun nanofibrous memebrane for solar-driven ...

A Versatile Setup for Determining Hydrogen and Oxygen Crossover of Electrolyzer Membranes and MEAs
Hydrogen and oxygen crossover in PEM electrolyzers affects safety, efficiency and gas purity. We present an experimental setup to quantify crossover through membranes and polymers. It allows in‐situ tests on full cells with MEAs and measures gas permeation in wet or dry ionomers and other polymers.

Hygrothermal simulation-informed design of mesoporous desiccants for optimised energy efficiency of mixed mode air conditioning systems [PDF]
This paper describes an optimization technique using hygrothermal numerical modelling to determine an ideal and unknown isotherm in order to inform the design of optimised mesoporous desiccants. Their suitability for passive humidity buffering as well as
