DOE Workshop on Hydrogen Separations and Purification Technologies Proceedings
The U.S. Department of Energy held a Workshop on Hydrogen Separations and Purification Technologies September 8-9, 2004 in Arlington, Virginia. This workshop brought together researchers, government officials, and industry members. The purpose of the workshop was to discuss the current state of gas separation and purification processes and to recommend advanced low-cost, high-efficiency hydrogen purification methods that will facilitate distributed reforming of hydrogen.
