METALLHYDRIDZELLEN MIT VERLÄNGERTER LEBENSDAUER FÜR ELEKTRISCHE KRAFTFAHRZEUGE

摘要

A metal hydride battery includes a metal hydride vessel for storing hydrogen and a battery cell in another enclosure having the capability of fluid communication between the vessel and enclosure through in-line piping. The in-line piping includes a catalytic converter and a molecular sieve dryer for adsorbing water from the hydrogen being piped from the battery cell enclosure to the hydrogen storage metal hydride vessel.
