14、-,- ISO/TR 15916:2004(E) iv ISO 2004 All rights reserved Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committee
15、s. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the Inter
16、national Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International St
17、andards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. In exceptional circumstances, when a technical committee has collected data of a different kind
18、 from that which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for example), it may decide by a simple majority vote of its participating members to publish a Technical Report. A Technical Report is entirely informative in nature and does not have to be reviewed until the d
19、ata it provides are considered to be no longer valid or useful. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/TR 15916 was prepared by Technica

21、-,-,- ISO/TR 15916:2004(E) ISO 2004 All rights reserved v Introduction Generally the public is not familiar with industrial hydrogen systems, nor does it have any experience with the new hydrogen systems under development today. The focus of this Technical Report is on the new energy applications. T
22、he intent is to provide, those unfamiliar with the technology, a basis upon which to understand the safety issues. This document concerns itself with applications that derive their utility from the chemical reactions of hydrogen and does not apply to applications based on nuclear processes. Traditio
23、nally, hydrogen has been used extensively in the petrochemical and chemical industries and in smaller quantities in the electronics, steel-producing, glass-making, and food hydrogenation industries. In energy applications, the only significant use of hydrogen has appeared in space programmes. This i
24、s about to change, given the promise that hydrogen brings as an efficient energy carrier and an energetic fuel with minimal environmental impact. Systems are being developed that produce hydrogen from primary energy sources such as sunlight, wind power, biomass, hydro and fossil fuels, for use in en
25、ergy applications for home and office heating, generation of electricity, and transportation. The safe use of hydrogen as a fuel is a primary ISO goal as it seeks to facilitate the rapid emergence of these hydrogen technologies. A key element in the safe use of hydrogen is understanding its unique s
26、afety-related properties and that there are acceptable engineering approaches to controlling the risks associated with the use of hydrogen. This Technical Report describes the hazards associated with the use and presence of hydrogen, discusses the properties of hydrogen relevant to safety, and provi
27、des a general discussion of approaches taken to mitigate hydrogen hazards. The aim of this Technical Report is to promote the acceptance of hydrogen technologies by providing key information to regulators and by educating the general public on hydrogen safety issues. The development of International
28、 Standards to eliminate barriers to international trade and to simplify the arduous regulatory process by providing hydrogen-specific standards to allow early implementation for rapidly emerging technologies was among the needs identified in the ISO/TC 197 Business Plan. This Technical Report is one
29、 of many documents that have been developed, or are in the process of being developed, by ISO as a response to the needs described in the ISO/TC 197 Business Plan. Detailed safety requirements associated with specific hydrogen applications are treated in separate International Standards. This Techni
30、cal Report provides an informative reference for those separate standards as a common, consistent source of safety-related hydrogen information. This should result in a reduction in duplication and possible inconsistencies in these separate standards. The considerations presented in this Technical R
31、eport are broad, general, and attempt to cover all aspects of hydrogen safety. The degree to which these guidelines are applied will vary according to the specifics of the application (such as the conditions and quantity of hydrogen involved, and the way in which the hydrogen is used). Industrial us
32、ers may find large portions of the guidelines, presented herein, applicable for their operations. It is not expected that the general public will be required to apply this degree of knowledge to safely operate a hydrogen appliance. It is anticipated that good appliance design, coupled with appropria
33、te care in installation, will reduce the degree of safety considerations to levels that are deemed acceptable by the public for common appliances in use today. The manufacturers of hydrogen appliances will need to consider these guidelines to tailor sufficient specific information for the operation
34、of their appliances, in the environment in which they are to be used, and for the audience that will use them. Readers are encouraged to keep these points in mind as they consider the information presented in this document. Hydrogen has been safely used in many different applications over many years
35、. Adherence to the principles presented in this Technical Report can lead to a continuation of the successful use of hydrogen.

Some applications may involve all three categories. 4.1.2 Production The primary means
42、 of bulk production of hydrogen today involves chemical processes such as steam reforming of natural gas, displacement of hydrogen from acids by metals, and electrolysis of water.

44、actical means of producing hydrogen. Different means of hydrogen production are used for special applications. For example, some applications seek to minimize storage or hazards by supplying hydrogen (or oxygen with hydrogen as a byproduct) on demand. Several electrolyser technologies are under deve
45、lopment for this purpose. Ultra-pure research-grade hydrogen and oxygen outputs are possible from these systems. 4.1.3 Storage and transport 4.1.3.1 General Hydrogen that is produced at a site for use elsewhere has to be processed into a state which can be readily stored and transported to consumer
46、applications. Compared to conventional fuels, hydrogens low density under ambient conditions and its low boiling point make it difficult for storage of sufficient quantities to suit typical applications. Proven methods of increasing hydrogen storage density include handling hydrogen as a pressurized
47、 gas or a refrigerated liquid, and using ground transport, water transport or piping for delivery. Only very small quantities of hydrogen are permitted for transport by commercial aircraft. Piping of hydrogen is used in industrial settings. In the past, hydrogen had widespread use as a component of
48、“town gas” that was piped to street lighting. Today hydrogen is not commonly distributed in piping for commercial or public applications. This may change with more widespread use of hydrogen. 4.1.3.2 Gaseous storage and transport Where small to intermediate quantities of hydrogen are required, gaseous hydrogen is compressed and stored in high-pressure containers. Conventional storage tanks of aluminium and steel are routinely used to contain hydrogen at pressures up to 40 MPa 2). Tube trailers, designed for highway service, transport
