Metal hydride hydrogen compression and storage

[@aaronsalvesen4553]

Bob Lazar already figured this out years ago! Used a homemade particle accelerator to make the metal hydride, which he then configured to store the hydrogen he makes from electrolysis (using solar power) he gets 400 mile range on all his vehicles. Said most cars can be easily converted!

[@kevinharrison5620]

"Homade particle accelerator" is a fancy way of saying Van der Graaf generator. He gets "zero" range as he was raided by the alphabet agencies and is more scared to talk about this than his time at S4 in Area 51.

The US government is not allowed to hold patents, Bob Lazaar was privileged to information, but he was filmed demonstrating his hydride storage tanks feeding his hydrogen vehicle many many years ago, the footage looks early 80's...when I first watched it I knew I was seeing the truth.

1:100 by weight ratio between H2 and storage unit is not good at all - is there a more efficient hydride or other chemical?

[@SharhbiniRauf]

Just put inside sphere shape mirror metal tank inside or any metal bottle tank that inside behave persistance like thermos flask, levitating hydrogen gas cab be compressing more than regular plastic or carbon fiber tank, i believe stainless steel and silver mirror will solve the problem of hydrogen storage, smaller cheaper and more volume.

[@SharhbiniRauf]

For delivery, the best solution is build water electrolysis on refueling station For case where goverment can get water from, we can use estuary water estuary water distillation, this the easy way to deliver hydrogen to entire population, not by send them finished goods but RAW MATERIAL of hydrogen it self (estuary water distillation)

[@rapolasmasaitis9824]

Efficiency? Cost/kwh or kg?

[@Christoph1888]

How can you store more hydrogen by volume than liquid hydrogen ?

Even in a liquid there is a lot of space between the molecules by chemically bonding the individual hydrogen atoms to the metal you can get more hydrogen into less space than in its liquid form.

[@SharkboyAJ]

WOW.

2.3 tons, is that a mistake?

This form of storage will be closer to batteries in efficiency but will not match batteries. Fuel cells have other problems which batteries solve. Hydrogen needs better hardware.

[@aalvarez2914]

The fuel cell isn’t the battery. Think of the battery as the storage mechanism. A lithium ion, regular car lead-acid, and this are all batteries. A rope and a pulley can store energy too. With hydrogen, the fuel cell combines atmospheric oxygen with the hydrogen to produce electricity and water vapor. They’ve solved how to get power out of that, and pure water vapor is generally less of a pollutant than what combustion engines produce. Hydrogen also has greater energy density, or range potential per mass than lithium ion as well with this new technology. Hydrogen is so light that previously it had to be compressed at very high pressure or liquified at very cold temperatures to store at this density.

@@aalvarez2914 Your explanation doesn't change the laws of physics. Since I know how fuel cells work I also know you will never get the right ratio of energy to cost to work. I can charge my electric car at home with a 5 or 6kw charger. more like a 20 to 30 kw solar array for fuel cells. No thanks.

[@robertolivarez5742]

@@LawrenceRhodes you guys seem very smart, I don't know much about this stuff but I think it's interesting how theyve created an artificial leaf so to say which directly produces hydrogen from water with sunlight. And they are not solar panels lol. It's pretty cool stuff

[@madsam0320]

Batteries take long time to charge and heavy. The range is too limited for long distance commercial vehicles.

[@LawrenceRhodes]

@@madsam0320 That is a FUD excuse.The Tesla semi is proving you wrong. Clearly battery electric has proved it's worth. Why go with hydrogen which in any form is outperformed by grid or battery power. Example. I could run my Bolt on a 7kw solar house. However if I needed to run a fuel cell car I'd need over 20 kw to match the Bolt. Hydrogen is only possible if you have an abundance of energy and don''t mind the extra cost and maintenance of the fuel cell. Battery electric is a no brainer and the rest of the country did the math. Economically hydrogen is too costly. Futhermore try running your Fuel Cell car from California to New York City....you can't. afdc.energy.gov/stations/#/find/nearest Thousands of EV charging spots. Less than 50 hydrogen and all in California. A hydrogen station costs a million dollars. Any 59 cent plug will power a battery EV.
