Hydrogen Production Facility

Explore the equipment

Produce hydrogen by electrolysis, dry and compress it, and hold it at pressure for dispensing — keeping every hydrogen-containing volume outside its flammable range and away from ignition.

Components

• Electrolyser stackELY-201

  Splits demineralised water into hydrogen and oxygen

• Gas/liquid separatorSEP-201

  Separates entrained electrolyte from the hydrogen stream

• DryerDRY-201

  Removes residual moisture before compression

• CompressorCMP-201

  Raises hydrogen to storage pressure

• Storage tubesSTG-201

  Holds compressed hydrogen for dispensing

• Pressure relief valvePSV-201

  Relieves overpressure to a safe vent

• Vent stackVNT-201

  Discharges relieved hydrogen at height, away from people

• Gas detectorGD-201

  Detects hydrogen in air around the skid

Operating states

• Normal Production

  Stack at load, compressor cycling on storage pressure, detectors clear.

• Standby

  Stack idle, storage holding pressure, isolation valves closed.

• Purge

  Nitrogen displacing hydrogen before maintenance — the step that keeps a volume out of the flammable range.

Failure scenarios and safeguards

• MOREPressure

  Hydrogen is relieved to atmosphere at height through the vent stack, and production stops.

• NOContainment

  Production trips and the leak is limited to the volume already outside isolation.
