Development, production and commercialization of energy conversion systems and their components.
Gas separation membranes for separating hydrogen and oxygen during hydrogen production in alkaline water electrolysers have been developed by the Start-up company MEMBRASENZ. Taking into account the relevance of hydrogen as a future energy career in providing green energy supply for industrial and domestic use and mobility applications, this invention possesses the potential to contribute solving some of the future energy challenges.
The innovative character of the idea is encompassed in the use of the composite material optimally tailored to fulfill the stringent contradicting requirements for this application i.e. simultaneously good ion conductivity and excellent gas barrier properties. Good ion conductivity enables the reduction of electricity consumption and efficiency increase of the electrolysis process. Using MEMBRASENZ membranes the customers, alkaline water electrolysers manufacturers, will get a possibility to equip their devices with an advanced membrane and offer to the industry a high purity hydrogen production system. The advantages of such a system would be the zero CO2 emission, reduced electricity costs and increased process efficiency.
