Hydrogen Safety: Invisible Risks and the Need for Advanced Detection
Hydrogen is gaining global recognition as a cornerstone of the clean energy transition. With its potential to decarbonize heavy industry, transportation, and power generation, hydrogen is often described as the fuel of the future. However, its unique physical and chemical properties present significant safety challenges that must be addressed in parallel with its adoption. For industries working with hydrogen, explosion safety, leak detection, and fire identification are not optional—they are mission-critical. The Hidden Dangers of Hydrogen Unlike conventional fuels, hydrogen is: Extremely flammable: It ignites with minimal energy input and has a very wide flammability range—4–74% in air and 4–94% … Read more
