Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2021014135A2] A hydrogen storage device (100A) comprises: a pressure vessel (230A), having a first fluid inlet (210A) and/or a first fluid outlet (220A), having therein a thermally conducting network (240A) optionally thermally coupled to a first heater and/or a first cooler; wherein the pressure vessel (230A) is arranged to receive therein a hydrogen storage material in thermal contact, at least in part, with the thermally conducting network (240A); wherein the thermally conducting network (240A) preferably has a lattice geometry, a gyroidal geometry and/or a fractal geometry in two and/or three dimensions, comprising a plurality of nodes, having thermally conducting arms therebetween, with voids between the arms; and wherein the thermally conducting network (240A) comprises fluidically interconnected passageways therein, for example within the arms and/or the nodes thereof, for flow therethough of a fluid.
