Abstract:
Systems and methods for manufacturing a tank for storing hydrogen in metal hydride powder are disclosed. The tank can include a closed enclosure divided into closed cells. Each of the cells can contain metal hydride powder. Each of the cells can also be manufactured successively by assembling the cells in order to form an open cavity or alveolar cell. One or more bulk pieces of a material capable of forming a metal hydride can be placed in the cavity. The cell can be closed with the bulk pieces by closing the cavity. After cells are closed, hydrogen can be introduced into the tank for transforming the bulk pieces into metal hydride powder.
