Project for the production of on-site generation systems

Project description

The project consists of accelerating the industrialisation of high purity hydrogen production and separation systems in situ, and is divided into 4 phases:

1) Industrialisation of the palladium-based membrane production line.

2) Adaptation of the test area for the validation of H2 production and recovery systems.

3) Development and optimisation of the design of a hydrogen production system capable of using natural gas/biogas fuel as feedstock.

4) Design and validation of the system for the separation of blends of hydrogen with other gases to be transported by the distribution network.

The objective of the project is to drive the industrialisation of the membrane production line and of high purity hydrogen production and separation systems in situ, with the end goal of speeding up the commercialisation of H2SITE equipment.

Impacto medioambiental

In addition to the production of green H2 and the direct and indirect reduction of CO2 emissions, this project contributes to the circular economy by promoting the use of available raw materials to generate hydrogen on site. Additionally, the equipment involved is certified to have a 20-year useful life (5 years for the membranes) and, finally, the intention is that all the equipment and parts that make up the reactor shall be reusable or repairable.
