Brief Description of the Invention
The invention called "HYDROGEN STORAGE SYSTEM FOR COMPRESSION ASSISTED BY RESIDUAL COMPRESSION HEAT" is to take advantage of the residual thermal energy generated during the hydrogen compression process, and convert it to mechanical and / or electrical energy to complement the demand for mechanical energy or electric used by the hydrogen compression system. The system is based on the fact that the cooling heat of the low, medium and high pressure compressors is used to drive an alternative actuator cylinder, which drives a hydrogen compressor cylinder that helps increase the hydrogen pressure at the compressor inlet of hydrogen from the first phase, reducing the net compression work and increasing the thermal efficiency of the plant.
