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 Mumbai

Mumbai and the broader Maharashtra-Gujarat refinery corridor host some of India's largest petroleum refining and petrochemical operations. These facilities consume significant volumes of hydrogen for desulfurization and hydrocracking processes, creating a natural market for on-site green hydrogen production via alkaline electrolysis. The region's chemical and fertilizer industries further amplify hydrogen demand.

IONZERA is manufactured in Bengaluru, providing Mumbai-based projects with 2-3 day road freight delivery and zero import duties. For refineries transitioning from grey to green hydrogen, IONZERA's 3x lower membrane resistance reduces the electricity cost per kg of hydrogen, improving the payback period for electrolyser investments. G-Hexa provides direct technical support and rapid sample delivery.
