Abstract
A method of removing hydrogen interstitially dissolved within an object can include: positioning a sorption pad having a contact surface and comprising a sorptive material; urging the contact surface into metallurgical contact with the first target surface while at a treatment temperature that is greater than about 200 degrees Celsius; c) maintaining the metallurgical contact for a treatment period during which the hydrogen migrates from the target object to the sorptive material; and at the conclusion of the treatment period, separating the contact surface from the first target surface and moving the sorption pad and any hydrogen sequestered therein away from the object.
