Reduce Scope 1 Emissions
On-site green hydrogen from IONZERA-equipped electrolysers directly replaces SMR-derived grey hydrogen, cutting refinery Scope 1 CO2 emissions from hydrogen production.
Continuous High-Volume Operation
Refinery hydrogen demand is continuous and large-volume. IONZERA's mechanical strength and chemical stability support the 24/7, high-utilization operation that refineries require.
Compatible with Existing Infrastructure
Hydrogen from alkaline electrolysis integrates with existing refinery hydrogen networks after standard purification, requiring no modifications to downstream hydrotreating or hydrocracking units.
Refinery Hydrogen Supply in Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh's steel heritage is transforming into a clean steel future through hydrogen-based direct reduction. The city hosts major steel research institutions and industrial gas companies investing in electrolyser-based hydrogen for decarbonization. Pittsburgh is also part of the Appalachian hydrogen hub initiative.
For Pittsburgh steel decarbonization projects, the cost of hydrogen is the key economic variable. IONZERA's 3x lower membrane resistance directly reduces the electricity cost per kg of hydrogen, improving the competitiveness of green hydrogen vs conventional processes.
