What’s in your hydrogen? Analytical toolkits for fuel purity analysis
Join us for this dual‑session SelectScience® webinar exploring hydrogen impurity testing and analytical strategies for achieving ISO 14687‑aligned fuel quality. To better suit your schedule and time zone, the webinar will be offered in two separate sessions:
- Session 1: 09:00 BST | 10:00 CEST
- Session 2: 10:00 PDT | 13:00 EDT | 18:00 BST
As hydrogen scales across energy, transport, and industrial applications, understanding fuel purity is fundamental for compliance, safety, and uptime. At present, only a limited number of instruments are capable of addressing the full hydrogen impurity matrix, meaning that most testing strategies continue to rely on a combination of analytical technologies aligned to the specific production pathway.
In this webinar, Tyler Roberts, Market Manager of Applied Markets at Shimadzu, presents a practical, process‑aware framework for hydrogen impurity testing. He will outline how different analytical technologies contribute to a complete workflow, including:
- System GC for permanent gases, hydrocarbons, and sulfur compounds
- GC‑MS for organic impurity identification and speciation
- Ion chromatography for ammonia and halogenated acids at the lowest required detection limits
- FTIR for rapid multi‑component screening from a single sample
Covering pathways from steam methane reforming (SMR) and electrolysis to ammonia cracking and liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) systems, this session will guide you in building the analytical foundation for confident hydrogen quality assurance benchmarked against ISO 14687.
