How dangerous is hydrogen?

About The Webinar

The understanding of hydrogen safety is getting more important than ever. Hydrogen technology is being developed worldwide in the push towards a low-carbon society. Hydrogen may be a solution to various critical energy challenges associated with the storage and transport of energy (especially that from renewable sources such as wind and solar), but the use of hydrogen brings its own challenges. Even though hydrogen has properties that make it safer to handle and use compared to other fuels, such as its non-toxic nature, other properties might require engineering control to ensure its safety. In this webinar titled “How dangerous is hydrogen”, you will get an overview of hydrogen safety, starting with details of hydrogen properties, and what makes it different from handling other chemicals, through to practical information on current best practice design approaches relevant across multiple industries (such as transportation, energy, and manufacturing). Lessons learnt from recent incidents are also discussed.
