Chromacity showcasing Hydrocarbon Contaminant Instrument for Hydrogen Production

 

The Future of Hydrogen Innovation Event, 10 September in Glasgow, UK.

Thursday 29th August 2024, Edinburgh, UK. CHROMACITY LTD., will be exhibiting at the Future of Hydrogen Innovation event at Glasgow Caledonian University on Tuesday 10 September.  The seminar and exhibition will celebrate Scottish hydrogen innovators and highlight their successes in the Scottish hydrogen sector.  It will also explore current and future challenges, using workshops and panel discussions to identify priorities and critical pathways.

Chromacity will be highlighting a hydrogen production measurement technology demonstrator instrument, developed under the Scottish Government’s Emerging Energy Technologies Fund – Hydrogen Innovation Scheme, aimed at real-time monitoring of hydrocarbon contaminants in hydrogen gas per ISO14687.

Chromacity worked in partnership with Fraunhofer UK and Heriot Watt University to combine The Chromacity Auskerry tuneable near infrared Optical Parametric Oscillator (OPO) laser with advanced Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy techniques developed at Heriot-Watt University.  The instrument allows many contaminants to be detected in a hydrogen production process, including broad or complex chemical signatures, and could be used ‘online’ with the gas cell integrated into the end-user’s system.

Chromacity will have a booth on the day with technical representatives on hand to answer questions.  More information on the exhibition and seminar is below.

About Chromacity

Chromacity is a world leader in the design, development, and manufacturing of advanced ultrafast pulsed fibre lasers. Based in Edinburgh, UK, the company specialises in fixed wavelength femtosecond fibre lasers and picosecond optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based tuneable laser systems. Based on a novel patented laser architecture that delivers ultra stable long-term performance, the fixed wavelength femtosecond fibre lasers work at 1040nm, 920nm and 520nm, and the tuneable picosecond OPO lasers operate across the near infra-red and mid infra-red wavelengths from 1.4um to 12um.

The lasers are used for scientific and industrial research including spectroscopy (materials analysis), microscopy (biological imaging), defect detection, pollution monitoring and a broad variety of quantum applications.

All Chromacity’s lasers are compact, air-cooled devices, and offer unrivalled long term pulse stability without the need for on-going maintenance. The company sells its products either directly, or via a global network of distributors and agents.
