Industries

Ultra-Clean Hydrogen Source

Electrolytic hydrogen from water splitting is inherently free of carbon monoxide, sulfur, and hydrocarbon impurities that can poison precious metal hydrogenation catalysts used in API manufacturing.

GMP-Compatible On-Site Generation

On-site electrolysis provides a controlled, traceable hydrogen source that simplifies GMP documentation and qualification versus multi-sourced delivered gas.

Batch-Flexible Operation

Pharmaceutical manufacturing operates in batches. IONZERA's high wettability supports start-stop operation, generating hydrogen only when hydrogenation reactors require it.

Pharmaceutical Hydrogenation in France’s Hydrogen Market

France has committed EUR 7.2 billion to its hydrogen strategy, targeting 6.5 GW of electrolyser capacity by 2030. With strong nuclear baseload power and growing renewable capacity, France has a cost-competitive electricity base for green hydrogen production. Industrial hydrogen demand from refineries and chemical plants in Lyon, Marseille, and the Rhone valley drives near-term electrolysis deployment.

IONZERA's 3x lower resistance improves electrolyser efficiency, complementing France's low-carbon electricity advantage. For French OEMs and project developers, IONZERA offers diversified sourcing with competitive pricing from Indian manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose IONZERA for pharmaceutical hydrogenation in France?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for pharmaceutical hydrogenation applications in France. IONZERA's 3x lower resistance improves electrolyser efficiency, complementing France's low-carbon electricity advantage.

How does IONZERA fit France's hydrogen decarbonization strategy?

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the electricity consumption per kg of hydrogen, improving the economics of electrolysis powered by France's nuclear and renewable electricity mix. This directly supports France's 6.5 GW electrolyser deployment target.

Can IONZERA be delivered to French industrial hydrogen projects?

Yes. G-Hexa ships IONZERA globally via air freight (5-7 days to France) or sea freight for volume orders. Technical support and sample requests are handled directly by the G-Hexa team.
