Isn't there also a potential problem with hydrogen embrittlement (depending on what materials are exposed) that you avoid with helium?

- HankB99 8y agoI don't know, but it seems possible. The only references I recall about hydrogen embrittlement were with steam boilers at high temperature and pressure. I suppose like most engineering solutions it comes down to the various tradeoffs between cost and effectiveness for hydrogen vs. helium.
