At present, hydrogen energy, as a kind of secondary energy with rich sources, green low carbon and wide application, has become a promising outlet in the field of new energy. Since hydrogen was discovered in 1766, it has been rapidly and widely used for its powerful purposes, including the following aspects:

First, industrial use

Hydrogen is not only the main industrial raw material, but also the most important industrial gas and special gas. It has a wide range of applications in petrochemical industry, electronic industry, metallurgical industry, food processing, float glass, fine organic synthesis, aerospace and so on. At the same time, hydrogen is also an ideal secondary energy (secondary energy refers to energy that must be produced from a primary energy source such as solar energy, coal, etc.). In addition, hydrogen can also be used as a raw material for ammonia synthesis, methanol synthesis, hydrochloric acid synthesis, reducing agent for metallurgy, hydrodesulfurization agent in petroleum refining, etc.

Second, fuel applications

Hydrogen can be used as fuel, with rich resources, high calorific value, clean and so on.

However, although hydrogen is widely used, it also has many disadvantages in the process of use. It's not easy to store and transport hydrogen safely,It is light weight, elusive, fast diffusion, low temperature liquefaction, will cause the valve blockage and the formation of unnecessary pressure. In order to make better use of hydrogen resources and protect the safety of personnel, a device that can detect hydrogen at all times is a hydrogen gas detector to realize safe use of hydrogen.

The hydrogen gas detector responds quickly and accurately to hydrogen detection to ensure that it can alarm in time when hazards occur.

From a global perspective, after the Middle East War triggered the global oil crisis, the global economic powers gradually began to explore alternative energy sources, and the "hydrogen economy" started sustainable development. In the past 10 years, countries that account for 75% of the global economy have successively issued hydrogen energy development strategies and actively promoted hydrogen energy construction.

Hydrogen is colorless and odorless. When it burns in the air, the flame is blue and not easy to find, so it is difficult to detect hydrogen leakage. The gas density of hydrogen is small, and it will escape into the air after leakage. When the hydrogen concentration in the air is high, it is easy to explode when exposed to heat or open flame.

In the manufacturing, storage, transportation and use of hydrogen, there is a risk of leakage. Therefore, we should pay special attention to hydrogen leakage detection to prevent accidents caused by hydrogen leakage. In the hydrogen-related link, the safety can be guaranteed by the hydrogen leak detection device.

However, the hydrogen leak detection device needs a sensor with stable performance and excellent quality to ensure the safety of gas use. It recommend everyone a sensor TGS2616-C00 for detecting hydrogen. This sensor is a semiconductor gas sensor specially developed by Figaro of Japan for detecting hydrogen leak. The TGS2616-C00 contains a newly developed sensitive element, which is little affected by interference gases such as alcohol, and has a high selectivity to hydrogen.
