Patents Assigned to H2FUEL-SYSTEMS B.V.
  • Patent number: 11220427
    Abstract: A method and a device for generating of hydrogen are provided with which an instantaneous release of hydrogen in considerable amounts is possible. The method comprises a one or two step mixing including injecting the fuel and an activator fluid into a reaction chamber. The device is adapted to be operated with such a method. Further, a fuel suitable for the use with such a method is provided, the fuel being based on a dry metal hydride or a dry metal borohydride being dispersed in a non-aqueous dispersion medium. Moreover, a method for (re-) fuelling the hydrogen generating device at a service station and a method for supplying a service station with fuel are provided.

  • Patent number: 11046580
    Abstract: A method for obtaining a mixture for producing H2, the mixture comprising a metal borohydride, Me(BH4)n, a metal hydroxide, Me(OH)n, and H2O, in which Me is a metal and n is the valance of the metal ion. The H2O is provided in ultrapure water, UPW, the UPW having an electrical conductance below 1 ?S/cm. The method comprises dissolving the metal borohydride and the metal hydroxide in UPW to obtain the mixture for producing H2 comprising an amount of borohydride, BH4, groups of the metal borohydride in the range of 45 to 55% mol of the mixture, an amount of hydroxide, OH, groups of the metal hydroxide in the range of 2 to 5% mol of the mixture, and at least substantially UPW for the remainder of the mixture.
