GLASS INDUSTRY
GLASS INDUSTRYGlass Manufacturing Membrane in United States
Float glass production and specialty glass manufacturing require hydrogen for reducing atmospheres in tin baths and thermal processing. 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.

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 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 glass manufacturing in United States?
IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for glass manufacturing 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.
