Lower H2 Input Cost

Methanol synthesis requires approximately 190 kg of H2 per tonne of product. IONZERA's 3x lower membrane resistance reduces the electricity cost of this hydrogen input, directly improving e-methanol economics.

High-Purity Hydrogen Output

Gas crossover below 0.5% H2 in O2 ensures the hydrogen feed meets the purity specifications for methanol synthesis catalysts, minimizing downstream purification requirements.

Scale-Ready Manufacturing

E-methanol projects are being planned at 100,000+ tonne-per-year scale, requiring large electrolyser installations. IONZERA's mesh-free production scales to meet these demands.

Methanol Synthesis in Jamnagar

Jamnagar hosts one of the world's largest integrated refinery complexes, consuming enormous volumes of hydrogen for crude oil processing. The transition from grey (SMR-based) to green (electrolysis-based) hydrogen at this scale represents one of the largest single-site opportunities for AWE membrane deployment globally. Adjacent petrochemical operations further amplify hydrogen demand.

For world-scale refinery hydrogen replacement, membrane efficiency directly impacts project economics. IONZERA's 3x lower resistance reduces electricity cost per kg of H2, and its domestic availability ensures supply chain security for a critical refinery input. G-Hexa can support the volume requirements of Jamnagar-scale deployments.
