ON-DEMAND PRESENTATION
GC Solutions for Hydrogen Impurities Analysis 

Event overview

Impurity analysis of different grades of hydrogen has become an urgent need for users. The impurities He, Ne, N₂, Ar, and CH₄ will dilute H₂ concentration, and CO/CO₂ will decrease the lifetime of the fuel cell. The presence of trace sulfides can lead to fuel cell catalysts poisoning.

In this presentation, the speakers deliver the total solution for hydrogen impurities analysis including five different GC configurations:

• GC-TCD/FID for ppm-level total hydrocarbon analysis
• GC-PDHID for CO₂, CO, CH₄, Ar, and N₂ analysis at ppb level
• GC-SCD for sulfur compounds
• GCMS for the detection of formaldehyde
• Micro GC for fast analysis of permanent gas

The results obtained from the flexible and diverse GC configurations show excellent performance of Agilent GC products. The solution can meet different analysis requirements of users. Speakers will also highlight the advantages of different configurations and how customers can choose the right GC products according to their own needs.
