CARBON CAPTURE

CARBON CAPTURE

Carbon Capture Membrane in United States

Many carbon capture and utilization (CCU) pathways require green hydrogen to convert captured CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels. The US hydrogen market is accelerating under the Inflation Reduction Act's production tax credits (up to $3/kg for clean hydrogen) and the DOE's $7 billion Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs program.

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 United States’s Hydrogen Market

The US hydrogen market is accelerating under the Inflation Reduction Act's production tax credits (up to $3/kg for clean hydrogen) and the DOE's $7 billion Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs program. Houston, Pittsburgh, and California are focal points for hydrogen production, with applications spanning refineries, steel, ammonia, and transport. American electrolyser manufacturers are scaling rapidly to capture IRA incentives.

IONZERA helps US hydrogen projects maximize IRA credits by reducing the electricity cost per kg of hydrogen through 3x lower membrane resistance. For American electrolyser OEMs, IONZERA provides a high-performance membrane source that diversifies supply beyond European single-supplier dependency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose IONZERA for carbon capture in United States?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for carbon capture applications in United States. IONZERA helps US hydrogen projects maximize IRA credits by reducing the electricity cost per kg of hydrogen through 3x lower membrane resistance.

How does IONZERA improve the economics of IRA-supported hydrogen projects?

The IRA provides up to $3/kg production tax credit for clean hydrogen. IONZERA's 3x lower membrane resistance reduces electricity consumption per kg of H2, lowering production costs and maximizing the net benefit of IRA incentives for alkaline electrolysis projects.

Can IONZERA be used in DOE Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub projects?

Yes. IONZERA is a drop-in replacement for conventional AWE membranes, compatible with standard alkaline electrolyser stacks. Hub projects using alkaline electrolysis can benefit from IONZERA's superior efficiency and competitive pricing.
