Practical Hydrogen Systems An Experimenters Guide

The author of Build Your Own Fuel Cells, Build Your Own Solar Panel and Build a Solar Hydrogen Fuel Cell System shares the details of his high quality, self-pressurized stainless steel hydrogen generator, and offers valuable insight into components, subsystems and processes involved in the production of hydrogen.
Hurley’s innovative small scale system is designed for ease of fabrication and a minimum of components – in versatile modular configurations that make experimenting and customizing easy. This hydrogen-generating system features automatic pressure control, and the book includes complete schematics for the electronic/electromechanical process controller, as well as over 230 other illustrations. 305 pages. Topics covered include: Electrolyzer construction and design Hydride storage Cylinder hydrogen Hydrogen leak detection and detectors Catalytic recombiners Hydrogen processing systems Filtration Parts suppliers and resources for hydrogen system components Fuel cell units Hydrogen storage Bubblers and scrubbing Pressure vessels for hydrogen systems Tubing and fittings for hydrogen systems Electrolytes Nitrogen purging for hydrogen systems Hydrogen regulators Material compatability for hydrogen system components Electronic and electromechanical process controllers for hydrogen systems Meters and pressure gauges for hydrogen process measurement Pressure switches and level switches for electrolyzers and hydrogen storage Intrinsically safe systems for hydrogen production Pressurized safety systems for hydrogen process control equipment
