Abstract
A mobile hydrogen delivery system for delivering a compressed stream of hydrogen at pressures up to 15000 psig. The mobile hydrogen delivery system includes a hydrogen compression system, a gaseous hydrogen storage system, and a delivery system for supplying hydrogen to end users. A mobile platform supports the hydrogen compression system, the gaseous hydrogen storage system, and the dispensing system. The mobile platform may be any platform, such as a trailer, capable of being pulled, pushed, or supported by any type of vehicle, such a truck, train, boat, tractor, etc.
Claims13
A mobile hydrogen delivery system comprising:
- a metal hydride hydrogen compressor for storing hydrogen and providing a low pressure stream of hydrogen;
- a mechanical hydrogen compressor for receiving said low pressure stream of hydrogen and providing a high pressure stream of hydrogen at a pressure higher than the pressure of said low pressure stream of hydrogen;
- a gaseous hydrogen storage system including one or more pressure containment vessels for receiving and storing said high pressure stream of hydrogen;
- a hydrogen dispensing system for dispensing said low pressure stream of hydrogen from said metal hydride storage system and said high pressure stream of hydrogen from said gaseous hydrogen storage system;
- and
- a mobile platform for supporting said metal hydride storage system, said mechanical hydrogen compressor, said gaseous hydrogen storage system, and said hydrogen delivery system.
