“…The presence of strategically located refueling stations enhances the appeal of hydrogen-powered cars as a viable alternative for customers, offering a level of refueling convenience that is equivalent to that of gasoline-powered vehicles [6]. Moreover, the possibility of on-site hydrogen generation is very promising for a reliable supply chain [7][8][9][10]. Furthermore, the proliferation of HRSs is frequently accompanied by breakthroughs in technology related to hydrogen generation, storage, and dispensing [11].…”

The present paper offers a thorough examination of the safety measures enforced at hydrogen filling stations, emphasizing their crucial significance in the wider endeavor to advocate for hydrogen as a sustainable and reliable substitute for conventional fuels. The analysis reveals a wide range of crucial safety aspects in hydrogen refueling stations, including regulated hydrogen dispensing, leak detection, accurate hydrogen flow measurement, emergency shutdown systems, fire-suppression mechanisms, hydrogen distribution and pressure management, and appropriate hydrogen storage and cooling for secure refueling operations. The paper therefore explores several aspects, including the sophisticated architecture of hydrogen dispensers, reliable leak-detection systems, emergency shut-off mechanisms, and the implementation of fire-suppression tactics. Furthermore, it emphasizes that the safety and effectiveness of hydrogen filling stations are closely connected to the accuracy in the creation and upkeep of hydrogen dispensers. It highlights the need for materials and systems that can endure severe circumstances of elevated pressure and temperature while maintaining safety. The use of sophisticated leak-detection technology is crucial for rapidly detecting and reducing possible threats, therefore improving the overall safety of these facilities. Moreover, the research elucidates the complexities of emergency shut-off systems and fire-suppression tactics. These components are crucial not just for promptly managing hazards, but also for maintaining the station’s structural soundness in unanticipated circumstances. In addition, the study provides observations about recent technical progress in the industry. These advances effectively tackle current safety obstacles and provide the foundation for future breakthroughs in hydrogen fueling infrastructure. The integration of cutting-edge technology and materials, together with the development of upgraded safety measures, suggests a positive trajectory towards improved efficiency, dependability, and safety in hydrogen refueling stations.

Proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are highly regarded as a promising technology for renewable energy generation; however, the environmental burden in their life cycle is a subject of concern. This study aimed to assess the environmental impact of producing a 1 kW PEMFC by a well-detailed cradle-to-gate evaluation, using mid-point and end-point impact assessment methods. The environmental impacts are related to the extraction of raw materials, consumption of energy, and transportation processes. Mid-point analysis shows that raw materials extraction and processing have a significant share in some impacts, including freshwater eutrophication, human carcinogenic toxicity, and terrestrial acidification. On the other hand, the energy consumed in fuel cell production plays a significant role in the impact categories of fossil resource depletion and global warming. The highest impact is attributed to the human health end-point analysis (0.000866 DALY), followed by the damage to ecosystems (1.04 × 10−6 species/yr) and resources (USD2013 6.16844). Normalization results further strengthen the importance of human health impacts and the necessity to solve problems regarding toxicity. The results of this work can provide directions toward enhancing the environmental sustainability of PEMFC technology and present a case for adopting a holistic approach to sustainability by looking across the life cycle of the technology.
