Schlaich bergermann und partner. Concentrating Solar. Metal Hydride. Metal hydrides are the most compact way to store hydrogen (more dense than liquid hydrogen). The internal volume of the CL-370A is less than 0.7 liters. 370 liters of hydrogen capacity is more than 500 times the size of the container! Standard SOLID-H BL-series containers hold 18, 20, 30, 120, 220 or 740 standard liters of hydrogen gas. These are on the shelf or available on short delivery schedules. We recently introduced the lower cost SOLID-H CL-series containers, including CL-370 and CL-910, based on aluminum industrial gas cylinders.

If you need a different capacity or special pressure-temperature specifications, just email your specifications. A SOLID-H™ container is coupled to your system by a fitting that you specify when you order. The hydrogen pressure when charging or discharging a SOLID-H™ container is something you select when you order. Alloy A is an iron-titanium alloy that may be shipped void of hydrogen as non-hazardous material. Fuel cell keeps going after hydrogen runs out. Imagine a kerosene lamp that continued to shine after the fuel was spent, or an electric stove that could remain hot during a power outage. Materials scientists at Harvard have demonstrated an equivalent feat in clean energy generation with a solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC) that converts hydrogen into electricity but can also store electrochemical energy like a battery.

This fuel cell can continue to produce power for a short time after its fuel has run out. “This thin-film SOFC takes advantage of recent advances in low-temperature operation to incorporate a new and more versatile material,” explains principal investigator Shriram Ramanathan, associate professor of materials science at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS).

“Vanadium oxide (VOx) at the anode behaves as a multifunctional material, allowing the fuel cell to both generate and store energy.” Purple plasma is visible through the window of this vacuum deposition chamber.
