Industries

Reliable Reducing Atmosphere Supply

Float glass tin baths operate 24/7 and cannot tolerate hydrogen supply interruptions. On-site electrolysis with IONZERA membranes ensures continuous, demand-matched H2 generation.

Lower Per-Unit H2 Cost

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the electricity cost of on-site hydrogen generation compared to less efficient electrolyser membranes.

Decarbonize Glass Production

Replacing delivered fossil-derived hydrogen with renewable-powered on-site electrolysis reduces the carbon footprint of glass manufacturing.

Glass Manufacturing in Brazil’s Hydrogen Market

Brazil's exceptional wind and solar resources, especially in the Northeast, position it as a global green hydrogen export powerhouse. The country's established ethanol and biodiesel infrastructure provides a template for scaling hydrogen. Port cities are developing hydrogen export terminals.

IONZERA's efficiency improvements reduce the cost of Brazilian green hydrogen, strengthening the export case for South American hydrogen and ammonia in European and Asian markets.
