Industries

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 Saudi Arabia’s Hydrogen Market

Saudi Arabia is building the world's largest green hydrogen facility at NEOM, targeting 600 tonnes per day of green hydrogen for ammonia export. The Kingdom's Vision 2030 diversification strategy positions hydrogen as a key non-oil revenue stream. With world-class solar irradiance and massive capital deployment, Saudi Arabia is becoming a cornerstone of the global hydrogen trade.

For Saudi mega-projects requiring world-scale electrolysis, IONZERA's efficiency improvements compound at scale. Every 0.01V reduction in cell voltage across thousands of cells translates to significant CAPEX and OPEX savings. Competitive pricing from Indian manufacturing further strengthens the cost case.
