Shown below is our latest product: a hydrogen generator, designed to provide carrier and flame gas for gas chromatography, and small industrial use. It outputs hydrogen at up to 90 psi, while not a high pressure, it’s higher than any other H2 generator in the GC space. The purity is greater than available with electrolysis, 99.99995%, good enough to be used as the carrier gas, and there is not desiccant to use up. Fairly low price too.http://www.rebresearch.com/
Me100 Hydrogen Generator
The hydrogen is made from methanol-water reforming in a membrane reactor, with a palladium membrane to purify the H2. It’s a small chemical plant. You can still adjust things, but we closed up the front a bit, so folks don’t stick their fingers where they don’t belong. There’s also a semi-transpartent tank so you have a decent idea of the liquid level. The use of the membrane reactor reduces energy use, and the metal membrane is why our hydrogen is purer. Our competition, (Porter, etc) uses only a desiccant.
