Gestione con microcontrollori di sistemi di misura e miscelazione di idrogeno per il settore residenziale

This thesis presents the design and implementation of an innovative residential application utilizing a PIC microcontroller, Sensirion’s brand new thermal conductivity hydrogen sensor(STC32), and a Baxi hydrogen burner to replace traditional natural gas-based systems. With a focus on sustainability and energy efficiency, this study explores the feasibility of employing hydrogen as an alternative energy source for residential use. The study commences by focusing on the different forms of hydrogen ,the industrial production of hydrogen and extensive research on the up to date hydrogen sensors available in the market. It involves the working principal of each, the materials used and comparison between each . Furthermore, the thesis highlights the market trend surrounding hydrogen as an emerging clean energy solution. By analyzing market trends and the Piacenza’s hydrogen exhibition 2023, the thesis offers valuable insights into the potential economic and environmental impact of hydrogen adoption. In conclusion, this research contributes to the exploration of hydrogen as a viable energy source for residential applications. The integration of a PIC microcontroller and hydrogen sensor presents an intelligent way to harnessing hydrogen's potential and to pave the way for cleaner and more sustainable residential energy solutions.
