Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

This study proposes a simple correlation for approximating hydrogen solubility in biomaterials as a function of pressure and temperature. The pre-exponential term of the proposed model linearly relates to the pressure, whereas the exponential term is merely a function of temperature. The differential evolution (DE) optimization algorithm helps adjust three unknown coefficients of the correlation. The proposed model estimates 134 literature data points for the hydrogen solubility in biomaterials with an excellent absolute average relative deviation (AARD) of 3.02% and a coefficient of determination (R) of 0.99815. Comparing analysis justifies that the developed correlation has higher accuracy than the multilayer perceptron artificial neural network (MLP-ANN) with the same number of adjustable parameters. Comparing analysis justifies that the Arrhenius-type correlation not only needs lower computational effort, it also has higher accuracy than the PR (Peng-Robinson), PC-SAFT (perturbed-chain statistical associating fluid theory), and SRK (Soave-Redlich-Kwong) equations of state. Modeling results show that hydrogen solubility in the studied biomaterials increases with increasing temperature and pressure. Furthermore, furan and furfuryl alcohol show the maximum and minimum hydrogen absorption capacities, respectively. Such a correlation helps in understanding the biochemical–hydrogen phase equilibria which are necessary to design, optimize, and control biofuel production plants.
