ABSTRACT:
A fixed ballast containment unit connected with a ship, comprised of an outer keel shell (16) within which a number of metal hydride containers (18) are supported by internal braces (17) in a manner which provides passages around the metal hydride containers (18) through which a number of heat intermediums may be induced to flow, so that the reactive properties of hydrogen with metal hydrides can be applied to various ships systems, while the mass of the ballast containment unit provides an inertial force to counteract external forces acting on the ship.
