Decarbonisation Technology - August 2024 Issue

For per cent-level measurements of hydrogen, only the catalytic bead (hot- wire) type can be controlled to operate at a high enough temperature to crack capable of excess oxygen, combustibles, and methane/ hydrocarbons measurements in one device Figure 2 Example combustion flue gas analyser,

the mainstream at present, it is widely regarded as a clean-burning fuel source, and it continues to be evaluated as a possible solution to decarbonise the future of many industrial combustion processes. Anticipating this energy transition towards hydrogen fuels, catalytic detectors provide a viable solution for detecting hydrogen at ppm and per cent levels in flue gas analysis, ensuring safe and efficient combustion control in the processes of tomorrow.

methane and monitor for smaller hydrocarbons and unburnt fuel, including hydrogen. If greater sensitivity is required, the most advisable method is to calibrate these detectors with per cent-level hydrogen, along with any other hydrocarbon of interest in the fuel. This type of calibration ensures that the per cent-level hydrogen is measured accurately, and it provides a valuable monitor for detecting potential fuel leaks and loss of flame at the burner. While the use of hydrogen remains outside
