Abstract

The hydrogen storage in metal hydrides is the urgent problem of hydrogen power engineering and the demand for metal hydrides as capacitive, safe and convenient in service sources of hydrogen has stimulated the study of hydrogen capacity of multicomponent alloys. In recent years, much attention has been given by scientists to the investigation of hydrogen-sorption and desorption properties of different materials, including nanocarbon structures and composites on their base, the study of peculiarities of the reversible hydrogen interaction with hydride forming metals and alloys, the development of high-pure hydrogen storage and transportation in solids. This chapter deals with the designed hydrogen metal-hydride torches with piezoelectric firing of flame, two models of accumulators/compressors of great capacity on hydrogen, and three modifications of laboratory hydrogen accumulators used in operation of fuel cells. We show the construction of all torches and accumulators, their technical operating characteristics, the special features and advantages of devices developed and produced in our department and their extremely effective applications in conditions of high ecological requirements.
