MRI: ACQUISITION OF A MULTIFUNCTIONAL HYDROGEN GAS ANALYZER FOR THE CENTER FOR ENERGY AND SUSTAINABILITY

1126758 BlekhmanCSULA正在寻求资金购买多功能交钥匙安捷伦/布鲁克气相色谱-质谱仪（GCMS）。该仪器是唯一可用于定量测定CSULA加氢设施氢气纯度的系统。它也是一个独特而强大的探测器组件，可用于确定许多空气和水成分的痕量水平。参与以下四个正在进行的项目的学生和教师将广泛使用该仪器：1）与氢气站串联的燃料电池车辆的氢气纯度研究; 2）城市环境中的多环芳烃; 3）自然环境中磷的循环;以及4）控制燃烧的生物燃料成分。据我们所知，根据制造商的说法，在加州只有一个这样的系统，那就是萨克拉门托（距离加州南部很远）。

1126758BlekhmanCSULA is seeking funds to purchase a multifunctional turn-key Agilent/Bruker Gas Chromatographer-Mass Spectrometer (GCMS). This instrument is the only available system for the quantitative determination of the hydrogen gas purity for CSULA Hydrogen fueling facility. It is also a unique and robust assembly of detectors that can be used to determine trace levels of a number of air and water constituents. Students and faculty involved in the following four ongoing projects will utilize this instrument extensively: 1) hydrogen purity research for fuel cell vehicles in tandem with the hydrogen station; 2) polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the urban environment; 3) cycling of phosphorous in the natural environment; and 4) biofuel composition for controlled combustion. To our knowledge and according to the manufacturer, only one other such system is available in California and that is in Sacramento (a long distance from southern California).
