Projects

Since its inception in 2007, CERC has secured nearly S$10 million in research and industry funding, including those from agencies such as the National Research Foundation, Economic Development Board, MOE Translational and Innovative Fund, Singapore Maritime Institute, A*STAR, Defence Science & Technology Agency, Infocomm Development Authority and Tote Board Fund.

Redox-Flow Batteries

The Redox-Flow Lithium Battery (RFLB) and the Condensed-phase Aqueous Redox-flow Battery System (CARB) battery system address the limitations of current power sources.  The RFLB combines the advantage of great system flexibility of the redox flow battery with the high energy density of lithium-ion batteries.  Once fully developed, the RFLB can provide a potentially disruptive solution for large-scale stationary and automotive energy storage.  The CARB provides a low-cost, scalable, high energy density and high safety energy storage solution for the near term deployment for distributed energy storage and grid applications.

Catalyst Coated Membrane Technology for Fuel Cell

Catalyst Coated Membrane (CCM), consisting of anodic and cathodic catalyst layers (CL) and an electrolyte membrane, is the heart of the hydrogen fuel cell where electrochemical reactions take place to convert hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) into electricity, heat, and zero carbon emissions, with water as the only by-product.  The CCM is a critical component in the fuel cell stack where the bulk cost lies.  Current industry processes are complicated and involve multiple steps, which result in defects and material wastage.  The CERC team has tackled the commercialisation of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cells using a multi-faceted approach via: (i) Innovative catalyst ink formulation and manufacturing processes; (ii) Unique three-dimensional catalyst structure design; (iii) Direct ultrasonic spray coating of nanocatalysts onto the membrane.  This comprehensive approach mitigates the high costs of platinum catalysts, enhances the durability and performance of the CCMs, and ultimately promotes efficiency, thereby allowing the production of cost-effective and efficient CCMs, and facilitating the widespread adoption of pivotal PEM Fuel Cell technology, particularly among SMEs and start-ups.

Automated Assembly Manufacturing of Single Cells for Fuel Cell

The Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) in a single cell is the core component of a fuel cell that produces the electrochemical reaction to generate electric power.  A fuel cell stack requires a large number of single cells.  Currently, single cell production is still largely a manual process that limits production scale.  Automating the single cell assembly process improves single cell production by assuring product quality, throughput, and yield.  An automated assembly process in advanced manufacturing with industrial robots, machine vision systems, and Internet of Things (IoT) is used in the single cell production of continuous wet lay-up processes together with catalyst-coated membrane (CCM) cutting.

Flow Reactor System for Spent Lithium-Ion Battery (LIB) Materials Recycling

With rising demand for LIBs in electric vehicles, portable electronics, and large-scale stationary electric energy storage, there is an ever-increasing need to improve the technology to recycle these spent LIBs before they go to waste.  However, current recycling methods such as pyrometallurgy and chemical leaching in hydrometallurgy cause a lot of pollution.  This green and cost-effective method to recycle lithium-ion battery (LIB) materials involves developing an energy-efficient oxygen depolarised cathode integrated with the flow reactor system.  Using redox reaction, the presence of regenerative electrolyte in the system breaks down spent battery materials to form reusable products to make new batteries.

Fast Charging Solutions for E-scooter

This systematic fast charging solution allows e-scooters to be fast-charged in areas with or without grid power access.  It includes re-designing the current battery pack with a fast chargeable super capacitance battery, developing a specific fast charger for places with grid power, and a fuel cell powered mobile charger in parking areas without a grid power network.  A mobile fuel cell charger has also been developed to provide sufficient power to charge the super capacitance battery within 30 minutes.

Smart Battery Power System for Underwater Inspection Systems

This Smart Battery Power System addresses the safety concerns for divers who perform under hull dock block inspections in shipyards.  With the smart battery power system to increase the effectiveness of remotely operated vehicle (ROV), the usage of the ROV not only aids the inspection process but also improves safety for the diver.  This project involves the development of a 230Wh Li-ion battery power system comprising a smart battery management system, an energy balancing and thermal management system, and a communication system.  It includes innovative solutions such as the SOC&SOH prediction technology and the battery cells scalability technology.

Configurable Smart Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) Battery Power System for Materials Handling Equipment

This is an innovative lithium battery system that offers superior power density, extended lifespan, and serves as a cleaner energy source compared to traditional lead-acid batteries.  Developed in collaboration with Battery Asia (S) Pte Ltd, the system has been successfully commercialised by our industry partner under the sub-brand "DUROXO," positioning it as a cutting-edge solution for a wide range of materials handling equipment in the Southeast Asian market. This initiative marks a significant advancement in enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of industrial power solutions.

Long Flight Endurance Drone with AI and Analytics-Enabled Detection Capabilities

This innovative project, developed under the National Research Foundation's Competitive Research Programme, integrates our world-leading compact fuel cell technology with an in-house designed drone, significantly extending the drone’s flight time for enhanced water infrastructure inspections.  The drone is equipped with an advanced onboard edge computing system, a dual-lens camera (visual and thermal), and sophisticated data analytics algorithms.  Developed to address the challenges faced by the Public Utilities Board, this system improves efficiency in routine inspections of the nation's main water supply pipeline.  It can detect and alert operators to critical issues such as pipe leaks, water stagnation, surface defects, and illegal dumping activities in real-time.  This project represents a significant advancement in drone technology for industrial applications, combining fuel cell innovation with AI-driven analytics to enhance the management and security of Singapore's vital water infrastructure. 

SmartDB for Elderly Wellness Monitoring and Habit Detection 

This project involves the use of a single device (SmartDB) plugged into the household electrical circuit, to monitor electricity usage patterns of electrical appliances in the home.  The data can be used to monitor the behaviour of the elderly living alone in the house.  Machine learning algorithms are developed to understand lifestyles and behaviours and identify abnormal events and habits of the elderly, without compromising on their privacy.  

Shell Eco Marathon Competition

The Shell Eco Marathon Race is an annual competition that challenges students from Institutes of Higher Learning to design, build and race hydrogen-powered cars that can travel the greatest distance with the least amount of fuel.  TP has participated in this competition since 2018 and emerged national champions (hydrogen category) in 2018, 2019, and 2022 (there was no physical race in 2020 and 2021).  In 2023, the TP team secured first place in the Asia Pacific & Middle East competition, and represented the region in the World Championship, achieving 4th place – marking the best result ever for Singapore.  This project not only offers our students significant learning experience, but also fosters sustainable solutions for the next generation.
