Hydrogen fuel impurity testing: How to comply with National Quality Standards
Presented at Pittcon, 2024
Hydrogen fuel is emerging as a key player in the rapidly growing clean energy market. However, hydrogen can contain impurities (introduced during production, purification and along the hydrogen supply chain) that limit the efficiency of fuel cells and lead to concerns over pollution. Robust, reproducible analysis of trace volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including aldehydes (i.e., formaldehyde), hydrocarbons, and halogenated and sulfur containing compounds (i.e., hydrogen sulfide) is critical for detection limits down to low ppt levels were achieved in accordance with standard methods (ISO 14687, EN 17124, ISO 21087, GB/T 37244 and ASTM D78921–5 and SAE J2719).
This poster discusses hydrogen fuel impurity testing & how to comply with these national quality standards.
