Lower H2 Feedstock Cost
Hydrogen accounts for roughly 70% of ammonia production costs. IONZERA's lower cell voltage directly reduces the cost of the H2 feedstock entering the Haber-Bosch reactor.
Continuous Operation Compatibility
Ammonia synthesis requires a steady hydrogen supply. IONZERA's robust PSU-TiO2-GO construction and 2.7 MPa tensile strength support continuous, high-utilization electrolyser operation.
Scale-Ready Supply
Green ammonia plants are planned at hundreds of MW to multi-GW scale. IONZERA's mesh-free manufacturing scales efficiently to meet the membrane volumes these projects demand.
Ammonia Production in Houston
Houston is the energy capital of the United States and a central node in the DOE's Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub initiative. The city's concentration of refineries, petrochemical complexes, and industrial gas companies creates the largest hydrogen demand center in North America. Houston's energy industry expertise is rapidly pivoting toward clean hydrogen production.
For Houston hydrogen projects seeking to maximize IRA production tax credits, IONZERA's 3x lower membrane resistance directly reduces electricity cost per kg of H2. This improves net returns from the $3/kg PTC. IONZERA also diversifies membrane supply for American electrolyser OEMs beyond single-source European dependency.
