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 Seoul

Seoul is the command center for South Korea's ambitious Hydrogen Economy Roadmap, housing corporate headquarters, government ministries, and R&D centers driving hydrogen adoption. Korean electrolyser manufacturers and fuel cell vehicle OEMs are headquartered in the Seoul metropolitan area, making it the decision-making hub for membrane procurement.

Korean electrolyser OEMs based in Seoul can differentiate their products with IONZERA's 3x lower resistance, enabling higher efficiency specs that are competitive in both domestic and export markets. IONZERA provides a technology upgrade path from conventional ZrO2-based separators.
