A plant for delivering hydrogen includes a hydrogen tank and at least one pipe for delivering hydrogen. At least one surface of the hydrogen tank or of the hydrogen delivery pipe is covered with a two-dimensional material mixed with a polydopamine-type polymer.

The invention relates to a method for storing and distributing liquefied hydrogen using a facility that comprises a store of liquid hydrogen at a predetermined storage pressure, a source of hydrogen gas, a liquefier comprising an inlet connected to the source and an outlet connected to the liquid hydrogen store, the store comprising a pipe for drawing liquid, comprising one end connected to the liquid hydrogen store and one end intended for being connected to at least one mobile tank, the method comprising a step of liquefying hydrogen gas supplied by the source and a step of transferring the liquefied hydrogen into the store, characterized in that the hydrogen liquefied by the liquefier and transferred into the store has a temperature lower than the bubble temperature of hydrogen at the storage pressure.

A multilayer structure selected from a reservoir, a pipe or a tube, for transporting, distributing or storing hydrogen, including, from the inside to the outside, at least one sealing layer and at least one composite reinforcing layer, the innermost composite reinforcing layer being welded to the outermost adjacent sealing layer, the sealing layers including at least one semi-crystalline thermoplastic polymer, the Tm of which is less than 280° C., wherein the at least one thermoplastic polymer of each sealing layer may be the same or different, and at least one of the composite reinforcing layers being of a fibrous material in the form of continuous fibers impregnated with a composition of at least one thermoplastic polymer P2j, the thermoplastic polymer P2j having a Tg greater than the maximum temperature of use of said structure (Tu), with Tg≥Tu+20° C., Tu being greater than 50° C.

A catalyst used for dehydrogenation of an organic hydrogen-storage material to generate hydrogen, a support for the catalyst, and a preparation process thereof are presented. A hydrogen-storage alloy and a preparation process thereof are provided. A process for providing high-purity hydrogen, a high-efficiently distributed process for producing high-purity and high-pressure hydrogen, a system for providing high-purity and high-pressure hydrogen, a mobile hydrogen supply system, and a distributed hydrogen supply apparatus are also described.

A system uses existing pipelines, e.g., natural gas, oil, etc., to transport hydrogen to one or more distribution points. The disclosed hydrogen distribution system enables use of water, sewer, storm drain and other existing pipelines for local distribution. Hydrogen is produced from an energy source at a producing location. A safety pipe is located inside an existing pipeline configured to carry a first product and a hydrogen delivery line, configured to carry hydrogen, is placed inside the safety pipe such that a channel is formed between an exterior of the hydrogen delivery line and an interior of the safety pipe. Hydrogen is injected into the hydrogen delivery line and a sweeper gas is injected into the channel to purge any hydrogen that might be leaking from the hydrogen delivery line.

A safety relief valve for a high-pressure hydrogen cylinder is provided therein with a compression spring and an adjusting nut. The adjusting nut can move up and down to adjust the pressure of the compression spring to compress a sealing plug, so as to adjust the pressure in the hydrogen cylinder to reach an upper limit of pressure relief, which is convenient. Meanwhile, the safety relief valve is provided therein with a fusible seal. When the temperature is lower than a melting point, the fusible seal solidifies, and the sealing plug keeps a gas outlet sealed to prevent hydrogen leakage. When the temperature is higher than the melting point, the fusible seal melts. When the pressure in the hydrogen cylinder is higher than the set upper limit, the sealing plug is forced to open, and the hydrogen flows from an exhaust hole to a hydrogen collection tube.

A test device for determining the particle load of pressurized hydrogen includes a housing (2), with an inlet (4) and an outlet (8) for the inflow or outflow of hydrogen, respectively. A sampling chamber (52) has a filter holder (44) for a test filter (58). A sample amount of hydrogen can flow through the test filter during a test procedure. After the test procedure has been completed, the test filter can be removed from the sampling chamber (52) for evaluating the deposition of particles. A venting device (64, 70) for reducing the pressure in the sampling chamber (52) is arranged inside the housing (2) and discharges any remaining hydrogen, at least partially, in the direction of the inlet (4) of the test device after the hydrogen has stopped flowing from the testing device.

A hydrogen gas supply system comprises a storing unit that stores hydrogen, a communication unit that receives at least either of burden information indicative of an environmental burden exerted during manufacturing of hydrogen externally received by the storing unit and quality information indicative of quality with respect to the hydrogen externally received by the storing unit, a user interface unit that provides an output in accordance with the at least either of the burden information and the quality information with respect to the hydrogen supplied from the storing unit to the user, and a controller that controls the user interface unit based on an amount of the hydrogen received by the storing unit and the at least either of the burden information and the quality information, which is received by the communication unit.
