Abstract

Typical power-to-gas plants mainly consist of a water electrolyzer, a mechanical compressor, an active cooler and a dryer. The best sequence of the single components as well as the pressure levels throughout the process are ambiguous. They depend on the hydrogen delivery pressure and the humidity requirements of the final product.
