Green Hydrogen Applications

Green hydrogen, which is produced through the electrolysis of water using renewable energy sources, has become increasingly important in the context of the transition to a low-carbon economy. As the world looks to reduce carbon emissions to mitigate the effects of climate change, Dorstener Wire Tech remains committed to providing our customers with the best possible materials solutions to help them achieve their sustainability goals.

As the world continues to transition towards cleaner energy sources, green hydrogen has emerged as a promising alternative to fossil fuels. Electrolysis of water using renewable energy is the most common method of producing green hydrogen. However, the efficient production of green hydrogen requires the use of specialized materials that can enhance the performance of the electrolysis cells, gas diffusion layers, and hydrogen separation membranes. Dorstener Wire Tech offers a range of materials that can improve the efficiency and performance of these processes.

Green Hydrogen Wire Cloth for Electrolysis Cells

Dorstener Wire Tech’s wire cloth mesh is commonly used in the construction of electrolysis cells as a support structure for the electrodes. The high-strength and good electrical conductivity of the mesh provides structural integrity to the cells while improving electrode performance and overall efficiency. The wire cloth mesh is available in a range of materials and configurations, including plain weave, twill weave, and Dutch weave, allowing for customized solutions to meet specific requirements.

Sintered Porous Metal Plates for Gas Diffusion Layers

Gas diffusion layers (GDLs) are critical components of proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells, facilitating the transfer of reactants and products to and from the electrodes. Dorstener Wire Tech’s sintered wire cloth and sintered fiber felt materials can be used to create highly porous GDLs, improving gas and liquid transport and increasing the efficiency of the fuel cell. The sintered laminate material is made up of layers of woven wire mesh, perforated plate, while the fiber felt is produced from metallic fibers that are non-woven and then sintered.

Sintered Porous Metal Structure for Hydrogen Separation Membranes

The separation of hydrogen from other gases, such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen, is essential in the production of high-purity hydrogen gas. Dorstener Wire Tech’s wire cloth mesh can be used as a support structure for the membrane material, as well as to enhance the membrane’s permeability and selectivity. The company’s expertise in the development of specialized materials allows for customized solutions to meet specific hydrogen separation requirements.

Here are some potential benefits of diffusion bonded woven wire mesh laminate materials for green hydrogen production:

• Porous plate with ULTRA SMOOTH SURFACE for high pressure membrane Support.
• High durability and corrosion resistance: Diffusion bonded woven wire mesh laminate materials can withstand harsh conditions, such as high temperatures, high pressure, and corrosive environments, without degradation or failure.
• High efficiency and performance: The uniform pore size and distribution of woven wire mesh laminates allow for efficient and effective mass transfer, which can improve the overall performance of the hydrogen production process.
• Scalability: Diffusion bonded woven wire mesh laminates can be easily scaled up or down to meet production demands, making them a versatile and adaptable option for hydrogen production.
• Multilayer diffusion bonded structures can be designed with choices of woven wire meshes, fiber felts and other metallic components which offer uniform distribution of flow.
