This test method covers the determination of hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, methane, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the parts per billion mole (nmol/mol) to parts per million mole (umol/mol) range in hydrogen fuel.

Analytical techniques are needed for measuring impurities in hydrogen fuel. Permanent gases are contaminants in hydrogen fuel that must be measured at low parts per billion concentrations. The GC/PDHID system provides a method for detection of these contaminants at the required detection limits.
The title and scope are in draft form and are under development within this ASTM Committee.
