Abstract

A hydrogen storage system provides a pressurized storage tank 21 in a motor vehicle 10, the tank containing a heat exchanger 27 and an adsorbent material 22 comprising a soft mass of carbon micro-fibres in the form of carbon wool with a surface area of about 2250m2 /g - 4000m2 /g, having a metal, preferably palladium, dispersed over the surface of the adsorbent in nano-particulate form. The metal is preferably precipitated in ionic form from a solution, and may be reduced after precipitation to a metallic form by hydrogenation at an elevated temperature. A refuelling station 1 comprises a supply of hydrogen H at a first working temperature of about 36K - 77K and a first working pressure up to about 300 bar, which is supplied to the tank 21 via first releasable couplings 9, 24, and a supply of refrigerated helium gas He at about 20K which is simultaneously circulated via second releasable couplings 8, 24 through the heat exchanger 27 in the tank 21 to offset the heat of adsorption. An auxiliary tank 28 contains compressed hydrogen gas H at ambient temperature which is injected in controlled amounts into the storage tank 21 to offset the heat of desorption as the storage tank empties.
