Flow control refers to the management and measurement of liquids and gases in industrial processes. In the case of water electrolysis, hydrogen transport, storage, and processing, this primarily involves water (potable, deionized or saline), hydrogen (compressed or liquefied) and oxygen. In this section you can find news items related to the equipment used to handle, control and measure the flow of these liquids and gases, including valves, pumps, compressors, actuators, heat exchangers, instrumentation, filtration products, pipes, fittings, flanges, and other related items. If you would like to see your news release published here and in our email newsletter, please feel free to contact Matjaž Matošec.
Bureau Veritas Italia has approved the Emerson BM6X series slam-shut valve for use in applications with up to 100% hydrogen and pressures up to 100 bar. The certification confirms the verification of material suitability, based on seal tests performed at the Emerson production plant in Bologna, Italy.
German research institute ZBT (Zentrum für BrennstoffzellenTechnik GmbH) and gas equipment manufacturer Theisen are developing and qualifying a new electrochemical compressor system to increase efficiency and lower the costs of hydrogen storage, transport and delivery.
Hydrogen technology development is shifting towards low-emissions solutions such as electrolysis, according to a joint study of patents by the European Patent Office (EPO) and the International Energy Agency (IEA). The freely-available study is the most comprehensive investigation of hydrogen-related patenting so far.
Emerson has launched a pressure-reducing regulator specially designed for use onboard commercial hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. The dual-stage active seal design of the TESCOMTM HV-3500 Hydrogen Onboard Regulator delivers steady pressure and constant hydrogen fuel supply to fuel cells.
Hiperbaric, a Spanish developer of high-pressure technologies, has signed an agreement with Lhyfe to supply hydrogen compressors that the French green hydrogen producer will use for selected projects in Europe in the coming years. For Hiperbaric, the agreement is the largest of its kind to date.
Italian compressor manufacturer SIAD Macchine Impianti has signed a framework agreement with Norwegian electrolyzer company Nel for the supply of hydrogen compressors. The opening order of the deal includes the supply of two compressors for wet hydrogen and one oxygen compressor, to be installed in a 20 MW plant located in Sweden.
To optimally utilise the advantages of a fuel cell drive, a reliable supply of hydrogen during operation and the shortest possible refuelling times are necessary. Poppe + Potthoff has developed a new valve product that allows tanks to be refuelled with hydrogen more quickly.
Emerson has launched the TESCOM Anderson Greenwood Instrumentation H2 Valve Series suitable for hydrogen applications up to 15,000 psi. The new solution reliably isolates process pressure in hydrogen fueling stations and tube trailers, reducing fugitive emissions and improving safety.
TÜV SÜD has issued its first voluntary certificate for a hydrogen valve for industrial use, awarding it to Oliver Hydcovalves. The international TIC company’s voluntary certification scheme is aimed at supporting the energy industry and the manufacturing sector in their goal to replace fossil fuels with hydrogen.
Oxford Flow has launched the latest version of its gas pressure regulator, the IM-S valve. The upgraded model offers an increased flow capacity of up to 30%, is designed for up to 100% hydrogen blending within gas networks and can be retrofitted seamlessly into gas distribution networks.
