Carbon Capture for Port Hydrogen Infrastructure in Rotterdam

Many carbon capture and utilization (CCU) pathways require green hydrogen to convert captured CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels. Rotterdam is developing into Europe's premier hydrogen hub, with the port authority investing in hydrogen import terminals, pipeline infrastructure, and large-scale electrolysis.

Cost-Effective H2 for CO2 Conversion

CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, methane, or synthetic fuels requires large volumes of hydrogen. IONZERA's lower electricity cost per kg H2 improves the economics of every CCU pathway.

Flexible Operation for Variable CO2 Streams

IONZERA's rapid electrolyte wetting (24-degree contact angle) supports dynamic electrolyser operation, matching hydrogen output to variable CO2 capture rates from industrial sources.

High-Purity H2 Output

Gas crossover below 0.5% H2 in O2 ensures the hydrogen stream meets the purity requirements for catalytic CO2 conversion processes without excessive downstream purification.

Carbon Capture in Rotterdam

Rotterdam is developing into Europe's premier hydrogen hub, with the port authority investing in hydrogen import terminals, pipeline infrastructure, and large-scale electrolysis. The city's refinery and chemical cluster, combined with North Sea offshore wind, positions Rotterdam at the center of European hydrogen trade and production.

For Rotterdam's world-scale hydrogen ambitions, IONZERA provides a performance leap over the locally available Zirfon from neighboring Belgium. With 3x lower resistance, IONZERA improves the economics of the massive electrolysis capacity planned for the Rotterdam port area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get IONZERA carbon capture membranes in Rotterdam?

Yes. G-Hexa ships IONZERA membranes to Rotterdam, Netherlands. Air freight from India in 5-7 business days

Why use IONZERA for carbon capture in Rotterdam?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, reducing cell voltage and electricity costs for carbon capture applications. For Rotterdam's world-scale hydrogen ambitions, IONZERA provides a performance leap over the locally available Zirfon from neighboring Belgium.

How does IONZERA compare to locally sourced Zirfon for Rotterdam projects?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower area resistance (0.09-0.1 vs 0.30 ohm-cm2), is 20% thinner, and uses mesh-free architecture. These performance advantages outweigh Zirfon's geographic proximity to Rotterdam.
