  • Figure 7B shows container 710 having a larger volume in the second portion 714, due to movement of the barrier 716.
  • Figure 9A shows a container 910 having a second portion 914 and a first portion 912, wherein the volume of the first portion 912 is defined by the space between the inner walls of the container 910 and the outer walls of the second portion 914.
  • Figure 9B shows container 910 having a larger volume in the second portion 914, due to filling with a substance, and accordingly the volume of the portion 912 is decreased.

  • the container 110 may be a portable device, for example, suitable for laptop computers, cellular phones, power tools, other handheld devices, small transports devices such as scooters, etc. Further, container 110 may be integral with a system such as a land, water, or air vessel. Additionally, container 110 may be integral within an on-site power generation system. In a further embodiment, the process 120 may actually comprise several electrochemical cells.
  • the connection between the portion 112 of the container 110 may have plural branches, that are separately connected to the plural electrochemical cells. Using suitable mechanical or fluid flow controls, such as valves, the metal fuel may be selectively transported to one or more of the connected plural electrochemical cells, forming cell systems of varying voltage and/or current.
  • the partially used fuel from portion 513b may be circulated through the process 520 repeatedly, until it is determined (e.g., via an associated controller, voltage sensor, or the like) that the capacity is minimized. This will ensure the highest possible depth of discharge of the metal fuel. When the capacity of the metal fuel is minimized, then it may be outputted as final exhaust to portion 514.
  • the catholyte may comprise the first substance, such as a bromine solution.
  • the bromine is generally converted to bromide ions and is stored to in the second portion 114 as the second substance.

  • the resultant mixture of carbon dioxide and hydrogen is then stored in the third portion 514. Accordingly, as the reactants (carbon monoxide and water) form the products (carbon dioxide and hydrogen), the volume of the container 510 may remain constant, since portions 512 and 513 contract, and portion 514 expands.
  • the useful byproduct may be light, wherein the process 520 comprises a transparent mixing chamber for mixing the first and second substances.
  • the first and second substances are chemicals that, when combined, produce light.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un conteneur comprenant généralement une première partie conçue pour contenir une première substance et une seconde partie conçue pour contenir une seconde substance. La première substance est utilisée dans le procédé, généralement destiné à la production d'un sous-produit utile. De plus, la seconde substance peut être un sous-produit utile résultant du procédé ou un sous-produit différent résultant du procédé. Le volume de la première partie peut être variable, le volume de la seconde partie peut être variable ou les volumes de la première partie et de la seconde partie peuvent être variables, de sorte que la première partie et la seconde partie tiennent dans le volume total du conteneur.
