SYPOX

In traditional industrial processes that produce hydrogen, heat is generated via fuel combustion. This not only decrease productivity, but it is responsible for approximately 40% of the plant CO2 emissions. Additionally, the inefficient and complicated reactor design results in expensive and difficult to scale down plant configurations. SYPOX has developed a new reactor technology that replaces burners and use electric heating elements to supply the required heat. In this way we drastically reduce CO2 emissions, process complexity, and capital costs.
