As the demand for Hydrogen is increasing, so is the demand to make the process of electrolysis more efficient and cost-effective. In alkaline electrolysis, hydrogen is generated by splitting water molecules (H2O) into Hydrogen (H2) and Oxygen (O2), this is done by applying a voltage on two electrodes inserted in a water basin. The water needs to be conductive, to allow the electrons to flow from one electrode to the other. The optimum conductivity is achieved by blending potassium hydroxide (KOH) and demineralised water. The current complex control setup required to achieve the optimum conductivity is achieved by a concentration sensor, flow meter, temperature sensor, control valve, and a PLC with preinstalled software. The FOCUS-1 can provide a one-device solution, as it has an ultrasonic flow meter, temperature and pressure sensors all built into a control valve together with a powerful processing, data storage and control capacity. Here are some of the benefits: - Comprehensive control and monitoring capabilities - Improved efficiency of electrolyser operation via accurate, stable, and fast flow control - Electrolyser optimisation via direct KOH concentration measurement - An all-in-one solution significantly reduces complexity, cost, and installation. - Additional data insights allow for high uptime of electrolyser.

Continuous hydrogenation of exothermic reaction with minimal use of catalyst and excellent temperature control. We build up to 4 times smaller than standard trickle bed reactors and reduce maintenance significantly. The payback time of the Contiplant reactor is only a few months due to the catalyst savings and reduced maintenance.

#Hydrogen quality is absolutely crucial – and it’s very difficult to ensure that all impurities are below the thresholds defined in #SAE J2719, #ISO 14687-2 and the corresponding other standards. Here’s why: #Oxygen: Well, that’s obvious: if the oxygen concentration in hydrogen is too high, it’s very dangerous. Period. #Nitrogen: Nitrogen does not have any critical effect, but it lowers the energy content of the gas and thus the value #Water: Water is surprisingly critical for the hydrogen quality since it will freeze, damage O-rings and valves, it’s absorbed in some polymers and changes the chemical properties over time – so it has to be removed to less than 5 ppm #CO, CO2 and Sulfur (e.g. H2S): Those molecules are harmful for the catalysts in fuel cells even at very low concentrations, so they have to be removed almost completely Other #carbon molecules: same here. They have negative effects on different materials including catalysts. While the list of potential and harmful contaminations is long, this is just a short overview of the most critical impurities and their effect. If you operate a #hydrogen production plant, a trailer filling station or even a refueling station, measuring the impurities is very important both for safety and liability reasons. A company with over 40 years of experience in this field is #LFE, a manufacturer of process analytical instrumentation. They offer a wide range of analytical systems to measure e.g. H2 in O2 or O2 in H2. In our next webinar, Jörg Gottschald, Managing Director of LFE, will give you an overview of -What continuous process gas analysis is -How a Thermal Conductivity Detector works -Why a Thermal Conductivity Detector is suitable in hydrogen applications -What detection levels are realistic in a real world application -What is required from the plant to connect a thermal conductivity detector -What a continuous hydrogen quality measurement system is   Joerg has 20+ years of experience in gas analytics, and he will share it with you for free.
