Ammonia as a Hydrogen Carrier
Ammonia is widely used as an effective means to transport and store hydrogen. In this configuration, safety considerations extend beyond the hydrogen itself to the associated tank systems and venting arrangements.
An example ammonia storage tank configuration illustrates the placement of Pilot Operated Relief Valves, Pressure and Vacuum Relief Valves, In-Tank Valves, and in-line Detonation Flame Arresters as part of an integrated tank safety system.

Applications for
Electrolysis Processes
System safety and personnel protection are top priorities during hydrogen production and transport. Hydrogen forms highly flammable and explosive mixtures with air, having low ignition energies and small safe gap sizes.
The explosion risk increases with higher oxygen concentrations, such as in electrolysis processes. Safety devices are selected based on the specific hydrogen–oxygen concentration. Engineering ensures protection measures align with actual operating conditions.
