Industries

Eliminate Cylinder Logistics

On-site generation replaces the complex logistics of compressed hydrogen cylinder delivery, storage, and changeover in cleanroom-adjacent areas.

Consistent Supply Reliability

Alkaline electrolysers with IONZERA membranes provide continuous, demand-responsive hydrogen generation, ensuring fab operations never face supply interruptions.

Lower Operating Cost

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the electricity cost of on-site H2 generation versus both delivered cylinders and less efficient electrolyser alternatives.

Compact Installation

IONZERA's thin 350-410 um profile enables compact electrolyser stacks that fit within the space constraints of semiconductor facility utility areas.

Semiconductor Fab Gas Supply in Netherlands’s Hydrogen Market

The Netherlands is positioning itself as Europe's hydrogen gateway, with the Port of Rotterdam developing into a major hydrogen import and production hub. Dutch industrial clusters in chemicals, refining, and steel are among the first in Europe to commit to large-scale green hydrogen adoption. The proximity to the North Sea wind corridor further accelerates offshore wind-to-hydrogen projects.

For Dutch hydrogen projects centered around Rotterdam, IONZERA provides a cost-competitive alternative to the Belgian-produced Zirfon. With 3x lower resistance, IONZERA improves the economics of large-scale electrolysis projects crucial for the Netherlands' hydrogen hub ambitions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose IONZERA for semiconductor fab gas supply in Netherlands?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for semiconductor fab gas supply applications in Netherlands. For Dutch hydrogen projects centered around Rotterdam, IONZERA provides a cost-competitive alternative to the Belgian-produced Zirfon.

Can IONZERA support large-scale Rotterdam hydrogen hub projects?

Yes. IONZERA is designed for both pilot and MW-scale AWE systems. Its 3x lower resistance improves stack efficiency at scale, and G-Hexa can supply volume quantities for large Dutch hydrogen infrastructure projects.

How does IONZERA compare to locally available Zirfon membranes?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower area resistance (0.09-0.1 vs 0.30 ohm-cm2), is 20% thinner (350-410 vs 500 um), and uses a mesh-free design vs Zirfon's PPS mesh reinforcement. These advantages translate to more efficient electrolysis at lower stack costs.
