Method for storing gaseous hydrogen through producing methanoate (formate)

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for storing gaseous hydrogen, comprising the steps of producing methanoate (formate) through contacting gaseous hydrogen with carbon dioxide in the presence of a hydrogen dependent carbon dioxide reductase (HDCR), and thereby storing of said gaseous hydrogen. The HDCR and/or its complex is preferably derived from Acetobacterium woodii.
