Enhance safety and efficiency in hydrogen blending processes
Best-fit instrumentation for accurate composition and flow measurement
Introduction
Process instrumentation for hydrogen blending
Ensuring a precise and consistent blend ratio of hydrogen and natural gas is crucial for downstream applications. This requires accurate and reliable flow measurement of both gases, as well as real-time monitoring of the blend composition through online analyzers.

Focus on key process parameters
Measure hydrogen flow accurately
Hydrogen has a low density and viscosity compared to natural gas, making it difficult to measure accurately with traditional flow meters. This requires specialized flow meters like Coriolis.
Ensuring accurate blend ratios in a hydrogen-natural gas blending unit is critical for safety, efficiency and compliance. Raman technology offers a highly precise and reliable solution for real-time monitoring of the blend composition.
