Industries
Contaminant-Free Hydrogen
Electrolytic hydrogen is produced from water and electricity, inherently free from the hydrocarbon residues that can be present in SMR-derived hydrogen. Ideal for food-contact applications.
On-Demand Generation
Match hydrogen production to processing schedules. IONZERA's rapid wetting properties support start-stop operation patterns common in batch food processing.
Regulatory Compliance Support
On-site electrolytic hydrogen simplifies compliance with food safety regulations by providing a transparent, traceable gas source with consistent purity.
Food-Grade Hydrogen in China’s Hydrogen Market
China operates the world's largest alkaline electrolyser manufacturing base and is the dominant market for AWE systems globally. With aggressive renewable energy deployment in Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, and coastal provinces, China's green hydrogen capacity is scaling from GW to tens of GW. The domestic alkaline electrolyser market is intensely competitive, creating demand for differentiated membrane technology.
For Chinese electrolyser OEMs competing on efficiency specs, IONZERA's 3x lower resistance offers a meaningful performance differentiator. The mesh-free design and advanced nanocomposite composition represent a next-generation technology leap for stacks targeting export markets with stringent performance requirements.

Why choose IONZERA for food-grade hydrogen in China?
IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for food-grade hydrogen applications in China. For Chinese electrolyser OEMs competing on efficiency specs, IONZERA's 3x lower resistance offers a meaningful performance differentiator.
How does IONZERA compare to Chinese domestic AWE membranes?
IONZERA's proprietary PSU-TiO2-GO nanocomposite achieves 0.09-0.1 ohm-cm2 area resistance, which is significantly lower than most domestic Chinese AWE separators. The mesh-free architecture and graphene oxide enhancement provide a technology generation leap.
Can Chinese electrolyser OEMs integrate IONZERA as a drop-in membrane?
Yes. IONZERA operates in standard 30 wt% KOH electrolyte at up to 45 degrees C and is compatible with standard AWE stack designs. It is a direct replacement for existing separators without requiring frame or system modifications.
