Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of hydrogen purification membrane electrode testing, and in particular to a hydrogen purification membrane electrode testing system. Background Art
[0002] Hydrogen energy plays a key role in promoting green energy transformation and has great potential. Hydrogen fuel cells, as an efficient and environmentally friendly hydrogen-electricity conversion device, have been successfully demonstrated and applied in commercial vehicles and other fields due to their significant advantages such as high energy storage density, strong power output and zero emissions. However, the storage and transportation problems of hydrogen, as well as its safety issues, have become bottlenecks that limit the widespread use of fuel cells in the vehicle field.
[0003] Ammonia, as a compound rich in hydrogen, has become a very potential candidate for hydrogen storage due to its excellent hydrogen storage capacity, high-quality energy density, low storage and transportation costs, and high safety. Hydrogen is transported in the form of liquid ammonia and extracted through ammonia cracking technology when needed.
[0004] However, the residual ammonia produced during the cracking of ammonia will have an adverse effect on the performance of the fuel cell, which requires us to adopt advanced hydrogen separation and purification technologies. Although technologies such as pressure swing adsorption and palladium membrane separation are relatively mature in the industry, their high cost, lack of durability and high energy consumption make them unsuitable for direct application in vehicle-mounted systems. In contrast, the electrochemical separation and purification technology of hydrogen has become an ideal choice for vehicle-mounted ammonia hydrogen devices with its compact size, excellent flux, fast dynamic response capability and long-term stable performance.
