More Methane from Every Biogas Plant

Raw biogas contains 35-45% CO2. Adding green H2 via methanation converts this CO2 to CH4, increasing biomethane output by up to 70% without additional feedstock.

Lower H2 Production Cost

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the cost of the hydrogen input, the primary variable cost in biological methanation, improving the economics of biogas upgrading.

Compact Electrolyser Integration

IONZERA's thin profile enables compact electrolyser stacks that fit within the footprint constraints of existing biogas plant sites, simplifying retrofit installations.

Biogas Upgrading in Italy’s Hydrogen Market

Italy's hydrogen strategy targets industrial decarbonization across its chemical, refining, and steel sectors concentrated in Lombardy and Southern Italy. With significant solar resources in the south and industrial demand in the north, Italy is pursuing both green and blue hydrogen pathways.

IONZERA provides Italian industrial hydrogen projects with a high-performance membrane at competitive pricing, enabling more cost-effective electrolysis for the country's decarbonization goals.
