Bulk Storage Vessels for Compressed and Liquid Hydrogen
Abstract
The most common methods for stationary hydrogen storage are as compressed gaseous hydrogen, cryogenic liquid hydrogen, and in metal hydrides. This chapter gives a general overview of the field of application for stationary hydrogen storage. It then explains some important storage parameters. The chapter concentrates on the description of different storage vessel types that can be located above ground or buried a few meters below the earth's surface. As well as technical data some cost estimates and economic targets are also presented. Liquefaction of hydrogen is a well-established technology, which is especially applied in space exploration and science. However, liquefaction is an energy intensive process. The chapter also describes the different types of containment for storing liquefied hydrogen. Finally, it provides a technical assessment of the storage efficiency and capacity of selected storage facilities with respect to the daily hydrogen demand of a fueling station.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
