The decarbonization of the energy sector is driving the interest in hydrogen as an energy-storage medium. A practical alternative to transport and distribute H2 is using the existing infrastructure for natural gas. The GERG-2008 equation of state currently serves as the ISO standard (ISO 20765-2) for the calculation of thermodynamic properties of natural gas, but H2 appears only as a secondary component.
The availability of consolidated data for mixtures with H2 available at the time of its constitution was very limited. The experimental characterization of the thermodynamic behavior of mixtures of H2 with the main components of natural gas is thus of great relevance to validate and improve the GERG-2008 equation of state for its use with H2-enriched natural gas.
In a mutual framework agreement, the two German national institutes BAM (Federal Institute of Materials Research and Testing) and PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt) agreed upon the development, provision, and dissemination of national measurement standards for chemical analysis via primary reference measuring systems.
Traceability to national standards and international comparability is of key importance for the acceptance of measurement results in metrology.
ISO 14687 defines threshold limits for expectable impurities in hydrogen that is assigned for use in polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells. This work describes the establishment of the traceability of some selected impurities by preparation and analysis of reference gases with the lowest possible uncertainty in composition. Primary reference gases were produced by the gravimetric method according to ISO 6142-1 and the analysis was carried out by operating measurement protocols according to ISO 12963 on two customized trace GC analysers.
