Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022223446A1] A process for determining a condition of a hydrogen carrier material comprises using the hydrogen carrier material in a cyclic storage process, wherein each storage cycle comprises loading the hydrogen carrier material with hydrogen, liberating hydrogen from the hydrogen carrier material and producing a mixture by adding a defined amount (ΔcT,i; ΔcNP,i) of an indicator material to the hydrogen carrier material. It further comprises determining a proportion (cT; cNP) of the indicator material in the mixture and determining a number of storage cycles for the hydrogen carrier material on the basis of the determined proportion (cT) of the indicator material and/or a degradation of the hydrogen carrier material on the basis of the determined proportion (cNP) of the indicator material as a condition of the hydrogen carrier material.
