Abstract: A hydrogen compression system includes: a heat pump part including a heat pump line configured to allow a refrigerant to circulate therethrough, a hydrogen compression part configured to compress hydrogen by being repeatedly heated and cooled, a first circulation line connected to the heat pump line while passing through the hydrogen compression part and configured to allow the refrigerant introduced from the heat pump line to circulate therethrough, a second circulation line provided to pass through the hydrogen compression part and configured to allow a cooling fluid to circulate therethrough, and a cooling unit provided in the second circulation line and configured to cool the cooling fluid, in which the hydrogen compression part is heated by the refrigerant or cooled by the cooling fluid, thereby minimizing electric power consumption and improving energy efficiency.

Abstract: Hydrogen storage system comprising a plurality of storage containers, each storage container comprising a tubular container wall and end caps closing opposite ends of the tubular container wall, and a metal hydride (MH) configured for hydrogen storage contained within a chamber of the storage container, the plurality of storage containers of one multi-container unit being interconnected by gas flow tubes in a direct fluidic connection ensuring that the gas pressure within the containers are substantially the same. The tubular container wall of each storage container has a diameter in a range from 1.5 cm to 10 cm adjacent ones of said plurality of storage containers of said module being separated by a gap (G) within a range of distance corresponding to 0.02×D to 1×D, D being diameter of the tubular container wall.

Abstract: Provided is an aircraft having a spherical body which generates buoyancy or which may generate buoyancy when filled with gas, wherein the aircraft further comprises four actuation units arranged on the surface of the body for movement of the aircraft in a translation and/or rotation through air, and at least one camera arranged on or in the surface of the body. Further provided is a method for providing optical information to a person in the environment of a flying aircraft, a method for providing optical information about an object and/or surveying of an object, a method for transmission of acoustic information and a method for observing or tracking an object.
