Abstract
We consider the main approaches and designs of using metal hydrides in supply systems of vacuum power plants with hydrogen isotopes as a working medium. By analyzing the results of investigations and developments in this field, we show that the most promising method is connected with the creation of multifunctional metal-hydride elements, which are a part of the structural units of the working zone of a vacuum chamber (e.g., the electrodes of a device supporting plasma) and are made of hydride-forming materials that are reversible absorbers of low-pressure hydrogen. In this case, in addition to the complex solution of auxiliary problems of compact storage, purification, and programmed bleeding-in of hydrogen isotopes into the vacuum chamber of a power plant, efficient pumping-out and improved operation of the plant as a whole can be ensured in certain cases.
