CARBON CAPTURE

CARBON CAPTURE

Carbon Capture Membrane in Portugal

Many carbon capture and utilization (CCU) pathways require green hydrogen to convert captured CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels. Portugal's strong solar resources and Atlantic port access position it as a green hydrogen and ammonia export hub for Europe.

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 Portugal’s Hydrogen Market

Portugal's strong solar resources and Atlantic port access position it as a green hydrogen and ammonia export hub for Europe. The Sines industrial complex is developing large-scale electrolysis projects targeting both domestic industry and export markets.
