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 Sweden’s Hydrogen Market

Sweden is pioneering fossil-free steelmaking, with hydrogen-based direct reduction iron (H-DRI) projects requiring massive green hydrogen supply. The country's abundant hydropower and wind resources provide low-cost renewable electricity for electrolysis. Gothenburg and northern Sweden are the focal points for hydrogen-intensive industrial transformation.

IONZERA's efficiency improvements directly reduce the hydrogen production cost critical for making H-DRI steelmaking economically viable against conventional blast furnace routes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose IONZERA for food-grade hydrogen in Sweden?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for food-grade hydrogen applications in Sweden. IONZERA's efficiency improvements directly reduce the hydrogen production cost critical for making H-DRI steelmaking economically viable against conventional blast furnace routes.

How does IONZERA support fossil-free steel production in Sweden?

Fossil-free steel via hydrogen direct reduction requires massive quantities of green hydrogen at the lowest possible cost. IONZERA's 3x lower membrane resistance reduces electricity consumption per kg of H2, directly improving the economics of H-DRI steelmaking.
