H₂

Hydrogen Production

Produce negative-cost green hydrogen from waste. Power fuel cells, industrial processes, or mobility applications with clean H₂.

How H₂ Works

The X-150 produces hydrogen-rich syngas, which is then upgraded through water-gas shift reaction and purification to deliver high-purity H₂.

1

Syngas Production

Gasification produces syngas (CO + H₂) at 800-900°C with H₂ content of 15-20% by volume.

2

Water-Gas Shift

CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂ reaction converts CO to additional H₂, boosting hydrogen yield to 40-50%.

3

Purification

PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) removes CO₂, N₂, and trace contaminants to deliver 99.9%+ pure H₂.

4

Compression & Storage

H₂ is compressed to 200-350 bar and stored in high-pressure cylinders or tube trailers.

Real-World Applications

H₂ configuration enables negative-cost green hydrogen for mobility, industry, and energy storage

Mobility & Transport

Fleet operators, municipalities, and logistics companies fuel hydrogen buses, trucks, and forklifts with locally-produced H₂ from waste, eliminating diesel costs.

Problem Solved: Expensive imported hydrogen, no refueling infrastructure

Benefit: €2-4/kg H₂ vs. €8-12/kg delivered, zero emissions

Industrial Feedstock

Ammonia production, refineries, steel manufacturing, and chemical plants use waste-derived H₂ as a clean feedstock, replacing steam methane reforming (SMR).

Problem Solved: Grey hydrogen from natural gas (high carbon footprint)

Benefit: Green H₂ certification, carbon credit eligibility

Energy Storage & Grid Services

Utilities and renewable energy developers store excess solar/wind power as hydrogen, then reconvert to electricity via fuel cells during peak demand periods.

Problem Solved: Renewable energy curtailment, seasonal storage

Benefit: Long-duration storage, grid balancing revenue

The Negative-Cost Hydrogen Advantage

Cost Structure

  • Feedstock: Negative cost (tipping fees €20-60/tonne)
  • CAPEX: €600-800k for H₂ upgrading equipment
  • OPEX: Electricity for compression, maintenance

Competitive Advantage

  • Grey H₂ (SMR): €1.5-2.5/kg + €10-15/kg carbon cost
  • Green H₂ (electrolysis): €5-8/kg (electricity-dependent)
  • Waste-derived H₂: €2-4/kg with tipping fee offset
