Problems solved by technology

The main bottleneck of existing mobile hydrogen storage technology is insufficient volumetric energy density or insufficient mass energy density
High-pressure gaseous hydrogen storage is currently the most commercialized hydrogen storage technology, but the safety and failure mechanism of hydrogen storage tanks need to be further studied. The power consumption of hydrogen compression in the hydrogenation process is large, and the carbon fiber wrapped around the storage tank is still a technical bottleneck in my country.
[0003] Metal hydride hydrogen storage materials have the advantages of high safety factor, high volumetric energy density, and high purity of hydrogen. However, their hydrogen absorption and desorption temperatures are relatively high. If they are used to supply hydrogen for hydrogen fuel cells, additional heating devices are required, resulting in structural Complex and difficult to manage, thus limiting its large-scale production application
Although scholars at home and abroad have studied various methods to reduce the hydrogen absorption and desorption temperature, they have not yet found a method that has high hydrogen storage density, fast hydrogen absorption and desorption rate, stable structure and low price under mild conditions (hydrogen absorption and desorption temperature is less than 100°C). Efficient hydrogen storage materials suitable for mass production

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of hydrogen storage systems, in particular to a self-heating metal hydride hydrogen storage system and a method for charging and discharging hydrogen using the hydrogen storage system. Background technique [0002] Hydrogen fuel cells have many advantages, but their commercialization process, especially in mobile applications such as new energy vehicles and drones, is restricted by the current development level of mobile hydrogen supply technology. Under standard conditions, the density of hydrogen is only 0.0899g / L, and the volumetric energy density is very low. At the same time, the boiling point of hydrogen is -253°C, making it difficult to liquefy. The main bottleneck of the existing mobile hydrogen storage technology is insufficient volume energy density or insufficient mass energy density. High-pressure gaseous hydrogen storage is currently the most commercialized hydrogen storage technology, but the safety an...
