UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON awarded a contract to Pfeiffer Vacuum Ltd for the supply of a quadrupole mass spectrometer system, valued at AUD 37,575.7.

The system is intended to support research on photocatalytic heterojunction Z-schemes for sustainable hydrogen production by detecting and quantifying hydrogen and oxygen gases evolved from a light-activated water splitting photocatalyst.

The equipment will sample gas from a closed circulation system attached to a reactor vessel, with the capability to discriminate between hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and water, and ideally detect decomposition products such as NOx, H2S, and SOx.

Data export to a PC is required for monitoring gas evolution over time.
