Hydrogen sensors can even effectively detect gas concentrations

Background:

In the future, it is hoped that “green” hydrogen produced using renewable energy will be a key component of a sustainable and climate-friendly energy economy. Although we can’t see or smell hydrogen, it burns and explodes very easily when it comes into contact with air. Historical events, such as the explosion of the Hindenburg Zeppelin and, more recently, the explosion of a hydrogen fueling station in Norway, show how important safety precautions are if we are to build a sustainable and safe hydrogen economy. Hydrogen sensors can be used to monitor the gas online.

Application of hydrogen sensors

Hydrogen sensors can successfully identify even low concentrations of gas, such as if there is a leak in a pipeline. The innovative hydrogen sensor designed by FAU researchers consists of tiny particles called superparticles that make hydrogen visible to the naked eye without the need for electricity or complex equipment. Superparticles range in size from 1 to 10 microns, with 1 micron equating to a thousandth of a millimeter, and contain the purple indicator dye Edgemite. When they come into contact with hydrogen, the molecules in the dye react at two different stages and change color significantly. If the sensor turns pink, it indicates a hydrogen leak. If hydrogen is still leaking and the sensor is in contact with large amounts of hydrogen, it will become colorless. Immediate response makes leaks visible and allows them to be found in real time. Another advantage of the innovative hydrogen sensor is its small size, making it suitable for many different scenarios, such as pipe coating.
