Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure relates to a vessel for a fuel cell, a fuel cell system, and a method for maintaining a non-explosive atmosphere in a cavity of a vessel for a fuel cell. The vessel comprises a wall defining a cavity, and a catalyst. The cavity comprises a non-explosive atmosphere comprising predominantly hydrogen gas or predominantly oxygen gas. The cavity is configured to receive the fuel cell. The catalyst is in contact with the non-explosive atmosphere in the cavity and the catalyst is configured to convert hydrogen gas and oxygen gas into water.
