Zusammenfassung:A gas block (10) for the removal of multiple contaminants from a gaseous stream from an electrolyser (1). The gas block (10) comprises at least one inlet (13), the at least one inlet being configured to receive a gaseous stream from an electrolyser, and at least two outlets (12, 14), wherein the first outlet (12) is configured for the removal of contaminant liquid from the gas block, and the second outlet (14) is configured for the release of the gaseous stream from the gas block. A first removal chamber (15) is situated along a flow path of the gaseous stream between the at least one inlet and the first outlet, the first removal chamber being for removal of liquid and/or vapour from the gaseous stream. A second removal chamber (16) is situated along a flow path of the gaseous stream between the first removal chamber and the second outlet, the second removal chamber being for removal of a further contaminant from the gaseous stream. The gas block is primarily for use in the purification of a hydrogen stream from an electrolyser.
