Cathode Filter FT/FTS - GMAC

  • Most common air contaminants present in operating environments are SO2 and NOx. Fuel cells are sensitive to these compounds as well as salts and VOCs which can enter the process via the intake air. Installation locations can be harsh, raising the importance for particulate removal. Maximizing air purity for the cathode is essential for optimizing a PEM fuel cell.
  • Chemical adsorption is a process in which vapors and/or small particles are removed from the air or gas stream via filters containing adsorptive media. Contaminants are removed when they adhere to or react with the surface of the adsorbent media and allow the cleaned air or gas to pass through the filter.
  • Maximizing the dwell time in which air or gas is in contact with the adsorbent media plays a key role in effective contaminant removal.
  • Solberg evaluates each application and works within customer constraints and media adsorption capacities to optimize filter effectiveness.
