Water and other solid impurities are removed from the fuel through filtration by the fuel separator. For it to function properly, the water must be removed before it reaches the fuel pump. Any water in the fuel can wear away the lubricants on the diesel fuel injectors if the separator malfunctions.
The hydrogen and oxygen gasses generated by a fuel cell are separated using an automotive fuel cell separator. An automotive fuel cell separator is essential because it enables the recombination of the two gasses to generate the electricity needed to drive the car. These gasses would mix together without a separation, resulting in no electricity being generated.
The Global Automotive Fuel Cell Separator Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The hydrogen business portfolio of South Korean refiner Hyundai Oilbank Co. will be diversified by the development of fuel cell separators and other necessary components.
The shipbuilding behemoth Hyundai Heavy Industries Holdings refinery unit announced plans to build a fuel cell separator plant in Seosan, some 120 kilometres south of Seoul, and start testing there by the end of the year.
One of the essential parts of a hydrogen fuel cell stack, which is constructed by stacking hundreds of unit cells made up of cathodes and anodes, is the separator. The separator acts as a support between the unit cells that make up the stack as well as a route for providing oxygen and hydrogen to the cathode.
The next phase, according to Hyundai Oilbank, is to work on fuel cell systems for cars, buildings, and heavy machinery. Separators for fuel cell electrolytes will be developed starting in the next year.
