Hydrogen odorization
In natural gas distribution, odorization contributes to a high level of safety and this will be no different for hydrogen distribution. Like natural gas, hydrogen is odorless by nature. This can cause dangerous situations, for example if a leak occurs. It is very likely that hydrogen will be odorized in the built environment in order to meet the desired safety level.
To prevent further global warming and combat climate change, worldwide effort is being put into low-carbon, affordable and reliable energy solutions. Hydrogen can meet the energy and raw material needs of industry, the built environment and the transport sector, sectors that are difficult to decarbonize. However, depending on the application, hydrogen must meet certain quality requirements.
Technical considerations when testing hydrogen valves with air
A paper on how leak tightness tests for valves and mechanical fittings for the supply of hydrogen as a gaseous fuel up to and including 16 bar can be performed with air or nitrogen.
Hydrogen is slowly becoming the go-to transition low carbon fuel for transportation. Manufacturers of cars, trucks, busses and ships are developing hydrogen fueled engines. To fuel these, owners of petrol stations are either developing or investing in hydrogen fueling stations. In order to do this in a safe and harmonized fashion an international standard was developed. This standard is the ISO/TS 19880-1.
