Summary
HyPlasma aims at bringing to the market an integrated solution for the production of affordable clean Hydrogen.
The process is based on methane pyrolysis, which transforms natural gas (or biomethane) into clean Hydrogen on one hand, and solid carbon on the other hand: it therefore avoids CO2 emissions. The operating costs are much lower than electrolysis (currently the most mature clean hydrogen production solution) thanks to lower electricity consumption. Besides, the carbon contained in the methane is sequestrated as a valuable solid carbon by-product.
This innovation was designed with industrial constraints in mind, allowing continuous operation at a competitive price with a low footprint, and allows to easily retrofit existing infrastructure: a greater environmental impact can be achieved when industrial processes are transformed but not disrupted. HyPlasma is containerized, to deliver clean Hydrogen near the end-user and thus decentralize the hydrogen production.
