Our technology demonstrates two major R&D directions for utilising renewables and valorising waste streams, including transforming renewables and waste biogas into hydrogen and green gas energy carriers for pipeline injection via an innovative plasma enhanced low temperature CO2 transformation process.
Electrolysis uses electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen atoms. At present, water electrolysis represents only 4% of hydrogen production; it is preferred when high-purity hydrogen is needed.
High purity water feeds are achieved by incorporating extensive water purification systems into the overall electrolyser design or via pre-treatment using external purification plants. Purification costs vary considerably depending on the price of electricity and increase if intermittent renewable sources are used.
