To realize the scale application of fuel cells, high-density storage and rapid and safe supply of pure hydrogen are important problems to be solved urgently at present.
At present, the supply of hydrogen fuel mainly comprises two modes of physical hydrogen storage and chemical hydrogen production. The physical hydrogen storage method mainly comprises high-pressure gaseous hydrogen storage and low-temperature liquid hydrogen storage. Wherein, the high-pressure gaseous hydrogen storage is convenient to use and has wide application range, but the volume energy density is low; the low-temperature liquid hydrogen storage has high energy density, but the system is complex and the cost is high. The chemical hydrogen production mainly comprises hydrocarbon steam conversion hydrogen production, methanol reforming hydrogen production, water electrolysis hydrogen production and inorganic hydride hydrolysis hydrogen production. The hydrogen production by the hydrocarbon steam conversion method and the methanol reforming method is widely applied in industry, but the prepared hydrogen contains a certain amount of CO impurities and can be used only after being purified, and the hydrogen production equipment by the two methods is complex and difficult to miniaturize; the purity of hydrogen obtained by hydrogen production through water electrolysis is very high, but the hydrogen production cost is high, the power consumption is large, and large-scale popularization cannot be realized temporarily; the hydrolysis of inorganic hydride to produce hydrogen is used as a small-sized hydrogen production method, and is very suitable for being applied to portable low-power fuel cells.
The inorganic hydride mainly comprises alkali metal hydride, alkaline earth metal hydride, borohydride and aluminum hydride, wherein, the hydrogen production by hydrolysis of sodium borohydride is the current relatively hot on-site hydrogen production technology, and the advantages mainly comprise: (1) the hydrogen production efficiency is high.

(2) The purity of the hydrogen is higher. The hydrogen generated by the hydrolysis of sodium borohydride does not contain CO, and complex purification treatment is not needed. (3) The reaction condition is mild, and the speed is controllable.

Part of the hydrogen production devices are fed intermittently, and hydrogen cannot be produced continuously. In addition, NaOH and NaBO can be entrained in hydrogen generated by hydrolysis reaction of sodium borohydride2If alkaline impurities enter the fuel cell, the performance and the service life of the cell are greatly influenced, so that hydrogen prepared by hydrolyzing sodium borohydride can be supplied to the fuel cell only after being sufficiently purified, and the problem is not solved in the prior art.
