The CONVERGE project

HyET Hydrogen participates in the CONVERGE project

The CONVERGE project will validate an innovative process which will increase the biodiesel production by 12% per secondary biomass unit used and reduce the CAPEX by 10%.

At the heart of CONVERGE are five breakthrough technologies bringing together the latest developments in the gasification of secondary biomass, upgrading and separation of synthesis gas streams, production of green CO2 for negative emissions, and hydrogen purification and compression.

HyET Hydrogen will provide the hydrogen purification and compression technology to supply hydrogen to the methanol synthesis process. HyET Hydrogen will design and build an EHC system that extracts and compresses H2 at >99.5% purity to 50 bar in a single step and at a primary energy consumption down to 12 MJ/kg H2, at a 10 Nm3/hr H2 (20 kg H2/day) output.

The CONVERGE project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement N° 818135. Project starting date: November 1st 2018.
