Industries

Reduce H2 Cost for DRI

Direct reduction of iron consumes approximately 55 kg of hydrogen per tonne of DRI. IONZERA's lower electricity consumption per kg H2 directly improves the economics of H2-DRI steelmaking.

GW-Scale Membrane Supply

A single green steel plant may require hundreds of MW of electrolyser capacity. IONZERA's scalable, mesh-free manufacturing is designed to meet these large-volume membrane demands.

Reliable Continuous Output

Steel furnaces operate continuously. IONZERA's mechanical strength of 2.7 MPa and chemically stable PSU-TiO2-GO matrix support the uninterrupted electrolyser operation that steel plants demand.

Steel Decarbonization in Canada’s Hydrogen Market

Canada's Hydrogen Strategy positions the country as a major hydrogen producer and exporter. Alberta's oil and gas expertise is pivoting toward clean hydrogen, while British Columbia leverages hydropower for green electrolysis. Calgary and Edmonton are emerging as hydrogen technology and deployment hubs.

IONZERA supports Canadian hydrogen ambitions with a high-performance membrane that improves electrolysis efficiency, helping Canadian projects compete in the global clean hydrogen market.
