A deep dive into hydrogen fuel analysis for a cleaner future

Event Overview

Dive into the heart of hydrogen fuel analysis in our upcoming webinar, where Dr Kiran Piduru, market development specialist, Markes International, will uncover the hidden impurities in this vital clean energy source. These impurities not only hinder fuel cell efficiency but also raise pollution concerns, emphasizing the need for rigorous testing methods like ISO 14687 and ASTM 7892.

Join us as and explore cutting-edge techniques such as pre-concentration/thermal desorption-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for precise identification of impurities including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), hydrocarbons, sulfur compounds, halogenated compounds, and aldehydes.

Discover how these compounds threaten fuel cell performance and learn about robust analysis methods employing thermal desorption–gas chromatography–mass spectrometry/dedicated detectors. This webinar will also spotlight innovative sampling strategies and advancements in water management to enhance sensitivity and accuracy, ensuring compliance with stringent detection limits.
