The environmental impact of CO2 emissions is widely acknowledged, making the development of alternative propulsion systems a priority. Hydrogen is a potential candidate to replace fossil fuels for transport applications, with three technologies considered for the onboard storage of hydrogen: storage in the form of a compressed gas, storage as a cryogenic liquid, and storage as a solid. These technologies are now competing to meet the requirements of vehicle manufacturers; each has its own unique challenges that must be understood to direct future research and development efforts. This paper reviews technological developments for Hydrogen Storage Vessel (HSV) designs, including their technical performance, manufacturing costs, safety, and environmental impact. More specifically, an up-to-date review of fiber-reinforced polymer composite HSVs was explored, including the end-of-life recycling options. A review of current numerical models for HSVs was conducted, including the use of artificial intelligence techniques to assess the performance of composite HSVs, leading to more sophisticated designs for achieving a more sustainable future.

As the need for clean and sustainable energy sources grows rapidly, green hydrogen and ammonia have become promising sources of low-carbon energy and important key players in the transition to green energy. However, production and storage problems make it hard to use them widely. The goal of this review paper is to give a complete overview of the latest technology for the manufacture and storage of hydrogen and ammonia. This paper deals with hydrogen and ammonia synthesis and storage. It examines the most recent technological breakthroughs in areas such as electrolysis, reforming, C-ZEROS, HYSATA, DAE, sulfide, and SRBW, as well as novel storage techniques, such as solid-state storage, plasma kinetics, and POWERPASTE. This article examines the history of ammonia production and discusses some of the newer and more sustainable techniques for producing ammonia, such as electrochemical and biological approaches. This study also looks at how artificial intelligence (AI) and additive manufacturing (AM) could be used to revolutionize the way green hydrogen and ammonia are produced, with an emphasis on recent breakthroughs in AI-assisted catalyst design and 3D-printed reactors, as well as considering major investments in the shift to green energy, such as Moroccan government programs, and how they may affect future hydrogen and ammonia production.

Currently, the emergence of a novel human coronavirus disease, named COVID-19, has become a great global public health concern causing severe respiratory tract infections in humans. Yet, there is no specific vaccine or treatment for this COVID-19 where anti-disease measures rely on preventing or slowing the transmission of infection from one person to another. In particularly, there is a growing effort to prevent or reduce transmission to frontline healthcare professionals. However, it is becoming an increasingly international concern respecting the shortage in the supply chain of critical single-use personal protective equipment (PPE). To that scope, we aim in the present work to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest 3D printing efforts against COVID-19, including professional additive manufacturing (AM) providers, makers and designers in the 3D printing community. Through this review paper, the response to several questions and inquiries regarding the following issues are addressed: technical factors connected with AM processes; recommendations for testing and characterizing medical devices that additively manufactured; AM materials that can be used for medical devices; biological concerns of final 3D printed medical parts, comprising biocompatibility, cleaning and sterility; and limitations of AM technology.
