Advanced On-Site Hydrogen Generation Provides Enhanced Capabilities

Advanced electrolysis hydrogen technology has demonstrated utility in providing hydrogen for brazing, annealing, MIM, P/M, flame spray and other techniques, in both continuous and batch modes.  Advantages include low flammable inventory, elimination of pressure hazards, eliminating of moving cylinders and elimination of deliveries. 

By combining on-site hydrogen generation with a small amount of in-process hydrogen surge storage, on-site hydrogen generation can be used to meet the needs of batch process such as batch furnaces.  By carefully choosing generation pressure and surge storage vessel volume, the process can provide maximum flexibility while minimizing the amount of hydrogen actually stored.

As compared with dissociated ammonia, advanced electrolysis hydrogen generation provides drier gas, and the ability to vary furnace atmosphere from no hydrogen to 100% hydrogen, enhancing processing flexibility.  Additionally, advanced electrolysis can be turned off when not in use saving power as compared with ammonia retorts.
