Wasserstoffenergie: Wasserstoffspeicherung im gekoppelten Zustand

Hydrogen energy is taking over the energy markets and is part of our daily lives. Hydrogen fuel cells have already been used in the production of cars, submarines, and aircraft. However, one of the most important unresolved issues of hydrogen energy, especially for mobile applications, is the development of portable batteries for the storage and release of hydrogen. A true alternative to conventional storage methods (liquid, compressed) is the metal hydride storage system, where hydrogen is compactly stored due to the high volumetric density of hydrogen packaging in metal hydride (0.09 - 0.1 g/cm²), which exceeds the density of liquid hydrogen (0.07 g/cm²) and is comparable to the density of hydrogen atoms in water (0.11 g/cm²), along with the high safety of such storage. The book deals with the physical principles of metal hydride storage and hydrogen release systems, analyzes the current state of research in the synthesis of metal hydrides, and discusses the prospects for their practical application.
