    A hydrogen tank for a balloon in a pick-up truck bed exploded, injuring 2. The Detroit Fire Department believes a leak in the hydrogen tank caused the explosion. [85] 22 April 2022 Towanda, Pennsylvania: A hydrogen tank at Global Tungsten & Powders Corp. exploded. A spokesperson for the company said five employees were taken to hospitals with ...

    New technologies are being developed by others to provide fuel tank inerting: The On-Board Inert Gas Generation System (OBIGGS) system, tested in 2004 by the FAA and NASA, with an opinion written by the FAA in 2005. [10] This system is currently in use by many military aircraft types, including the C-17. This system provides the level of safety ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_infrastructure

    A hydrogen tank (other names- cartridge or canister) is used for hydrogen storage. [89] [90] [91] The first type IV hydrogen tanks for compressed hydrogen at 700 bars (70 MPa; 10,000 psi) were demonstrated in 2001, the first fuel cell vehicles on the road with type IV tanks are the Toyota FCHV, Mercedes-Benz F-Cell and the GM HydroGen4.

  5. Inert gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inert_gas

    The inert gas generator consists of a combustion chamber and scrubber unit supplied by fans and a refrigeration unit which cools the gas. A drier in series with the system removes moisture from the gas before it is supplied to the deck. Cargo tanks on gas carriers are not inerted, but the whole space around them is.

  6. Purging (gas) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purging_(gas)

    Because an inert purge gas is used, the purge procedure may (erroneously) be referred to as inerting in everyday language. This confusion may lead to dangerous situations. Carbon dioxide is a safe inert gas for purging. Carbon dioxide is an unsafe inert gas for inerting, as it may ignite the vapors and result in an explosion. [2]

    Hydrogen fuel cells are vying for a top spot among humanity’s green energy solutions, but chemicals found in fuel cells— as well as the environmental cost of producing hydrogen—are a major ...

  8. Hydrogen internal combustion engine vehicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_internal...

    The theoretical maximum power output from a hydrogen engine depends on the air/fuel ratio and fuel injection method used. The stoichiometric air/fuel ratio for hydrogen is 34:1. At this air/fuel ratio, hydrogen will displace 29% of the combustion chamber leaving only 71% for the air.

  9. Inerting (gas) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inerting_(gas)

    The inerting systems use an inert gas generator to supply inert make-up gas instead of air. This procedure is often referred to as inerting. Technically, the procedure ensures that the atmosphere in the tank's headspace remains unignitable. The gas mixture in the headspace is not inert per se, it's just unignitable. Because of its content of ...
