Call
Detailed Call Description
New and optimised leak detection sensors and tools should be developed in order to enable safer storage, transport and distribution of hydrogen.
Besides the technical KPIs that were already mentioned in the expected outcome section other key elements for leak detection monitoring are outlined below:
- Leak detection devices should identify the origin or the leak (e.g acoustic detection) to allow the commissioning & operating team to fix the issue;
- The leak detection system should warn personnel with visual and audible warnings when the environment is becoming unsafe; remote notification should be preferred.
The proposed technology should be suitable for continuous leak detection monitoring or/and periodic maintenance. Certain leak categories may be addressed by periodic measurement while other leak detection solutions may require interconnected mobile sensors or multiplexed arrangements.
The scope of the topic is completely open to any kind of sensing technology.
