[0029] The solid oxide electrolytic cell 5, the cathode side high temperature heat exchanger 7 and the cathode side low temperature heat exchanger 8 are sequentially connected; the inlet and the liquid phase outlet of the gas-liquid separator 9 are respectively connected with the hot fluid outlet end of the cathode side low temperature heat exchanger 8 and the cold fluid inlet end of the cathode side low temperature heat exchanger 8, that is, the inlet of the gas-liquid separator 9 is connected with the hot fluid outlet end of the cathode side low temperature heat exchanger 8, and the liquid phase outlet of the gas-liquid separator 9 is connected with the cold fluid inlet end of the cathode side low temperature heat exchanger 8; the magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage device 11 is formed with a phase-separated chamber and a flow channel, and a magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage material is arranged in the chamber, and a heat transfer oil is arranged in the flow channel;
[0030] The gas phase outlet of the gas-liquid separator 9 is connected to the chamber of the magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage device 11 via the hydrogen compressor 10; the flow channel of the magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage device 11 is connected to the first heat exchange chamber of the thermal oil evaporator 12 through a pipeline to form a circulation loop; the cold fluid outlet of the cathode-side low-temperature heat exchanger 8 and the cold fluid inlet of the cathode-side high-temperature heat exchanger 7 are respectively connected to the second heat exchange chamber of the thermal oil evaporator 12.
[0031] According to the structure described above, the working process of the coupled system of electrolysis hydrogen production and solid-state hydrogen storage is as follows:
[0032] The external make-up water at room temperature (20-40°C) and the condensed water after gas-liquid separation are combined and pressurized by the water pump 14 described below, and then enter the cathode side low-temperature heat exchanger 8 for heat exchange, absorb part of the heat, and after the temperature rises to 70-90°C, enter the thermal oil evaporator 12 to absorb the heat brought by the thermal oil, and the water becomes 120-150°C water vapor. The water vapor enters the cathode side high-temperature heat exchanger 7 through the medium-temperature water vapor pipeline 43 for heat exchange and becomes high-temperature (700-800°C) water vapor, and the high-temperature water vapor enters the solid oxide electrolytic cell 5;
[0033] After the electrolysis reaction in the solid oxide electrolytic cell 5, the high-temperature (700-800°C) hydrogen and unreacted water vapor generated on the cathode side enter the cathode side high-temperature heat exchanger 7 and the cathode side low-temperature heat exchanger 8 in sequence for heat exchange, and after being cooled to room temperature, enter the gas-liquid separator 9 through the low-temperature hydrogen / water pipeline 53 for separation of hydrogen and condensed water;
[0034] The hydrogen generated by electrolysis in the solid oxide electrolyzer 5 is condensed and purified by the gas-liquid separator 9, enters the hydrogen compressor 10 for pressurization, and then enters the magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage container. The magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage material will release a large amount of heat when charging with hydrogen. The heat heats the heat transfer oil in the flow channel of the magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage container. The heated heat transfer oil is taken out by the heat transfer oil outlet pipe 71 and enters the heat transfer oil evaporator 12 through the heat transfer oil circulation system to transfer the heat to water / water vapor. The temperature of the heat transfer oil is reduced, and then it enters the magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage container through the heat transfer oil return pipe for circulation heat exchange, so as to continuously withdraw the heat in the magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage charging process.
[0035] It can be seen that by using the thermal oil evaporator 12, through the heat exchange between thermal oil and water, the reaction heat generated in the magnesium-based hydrogen charging process is converted into high-temperature water vapor required for solid oxide electrolysis to produce hydrogen, thereby realizing the ingenious coupling of the hydrogen production system and the hydrogen charging system material and thermal management, and significantly improving the energy utilization rate of the entire system. That is to say, the solid oxide electrolysis device 5 and the magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage device 11 are coupled using the thermal oil evaporator 12, thereby realizing heat recovery in the hydrogen charging process of the solid-state hydrogen storage system, and also generating the raw gas required for the solid oxide hydrogen production system. There is no need to consider the external supply of heat sources, and the heat balance of the entire system can be basically achieved, significantly improving the energy efficiency of the system. At the same time, the high-temperature product generated by the cathode of solid oxide electrolysis hydrogen production uses two heat exchangers on the cathode side to preheat the hydrogen production raw water, thereby realizing the optimal configuration of energy and further improving the energy utilization rate of the system.

[0060] In summary, the detailed working process of the coupling system of hydrogen production by electrolysis and solid-state hydrogen storage is as follows:
[0061] The working process of the coupled system of electrolysis hydrogen production and solid-state hydrogen storage is as follows:
[0062] The external make-up water at room temperature (20-40°C) and the condensed water after gas-liquid separation are combined and pressurized by the water pump 14, and then enter the cathode side low-temperature heat exchanger 8 for heat exchange, absorb part of the heat, and after the temperature rises to 70-90°C, enter the thermal oil evaporator 12 to absorb the heat brought by the thermal oil, and the water becomes 120-150°C water vapor. The water vapor enters the cathode side high-temperature heat exchanger 7 through the medium-temperature water vapor pipeline 43 for heat exchange and becomes high-temperature (700-800°C) water vapor. The high-temperature water vapor enters the solid oxide electrolytic cell 5 through the cathode side electric heater 6;
[0063] After the electrolysis reaction in the solid oxide electrolytic cell 5, the high-temperature (700-800°C) hydrogen and unreacted water vapor generated on the cathode side enter the cathode side high-temperature heat exchanger 7 and the cathode side low-temperature heat exchanger 8 in sequence for heat exchange, and after being cooled to room temperature, enter the gas-liquid separator 9 through the low-temperature hydrogen / water pipeline 53 for separation of hydrogen and condensed water;
[0064] On the anode side of the solid oxide electrolyzer 5, the normal temperature air is first pressurized by the blower 1 and then heat exchanged and heated by the anode side low temperature heat exchanger 2 and the anode side high temperature heat exchanger 3. At the same time, the temperature is regulated and controlled by the anode side electric heating regulator to stabilize the air temperature entering the anode of the solid oxide electrolyzer 5 within the design range.

[0065] The hydrogen generated by electrolysis in the solid oxide electrolyzer 5 is condensed and purified by the gas-liquid separator 9, enters the hydrogen compressor 10 for pressurization, and then enters the magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage container. The magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage material will release a large amount of heat when charging with hydrogen. The heat heats the heat transfer oil in the flow channel of the magnesium-based solid hydrogen storage container. The heated heat transfer oil is taken out by the heat transfer oil outlet pipe 71 and enters the heat transfer oil evaporator 12 through the heat transfer oil circulation system to transfer the heat to water / water vapor.
