    blue hydrogen

    A low-carbon solution that starts with natural gas

    The global climate consensus stage has passed, and the target-setting is completed. 

    Now is the time to consider next steps and that's where blue hydrogen (also commonly known as 'low-carbon hydrogen') come in. Let’s implement ultra-low carbon hydrogen and let’s use natural gas resources to do that. Because — make no mistake — natural gas has a huge role to play in reaching a low-carbon world.

     

    Go big, go blue

    It’s clear: To meet increasing demands, the world needs to increase production capacity. So why wait? Blue hydrogen is ready to deploy today.

    Choose a blue hydrogen technology licensor that enables you to produce at any scale, from small- to mega-scale. In doing so, you’ll open up a world of opportunities for your business.

    Let’s embrace unparalleled economy of scale and meet the massive global need with proven blue hydrogen technologies.

    The most output, the lowest input

    To us, efficiency is a necessity. We want to help you make ultra-low carbon intensity hydrogen using the lowest energy possible. And at the lowest levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH).

    That’s why we have the broadest selection of technologies to produce blue hydrogen today — all with one common goal: reducing the carbon intensity (CI) of hydrogen.

    We deliver an integrated blue hydrogen solution comprising hydrogen production and carbon capture. In close dialogue with you, we select the most suitable combination of technologies based on specific project drivers.

    From small- to mega-scale

    In business, economy of scale matters. We have designed our blue hydrogen solutions so you can scale as needed. No production capacity is too high.

    Two best-in-class blue hydrogen technologies available today

    SynCOR™ technology
    Mega-scale production

    SynCOR™ technology

    Unparalleled economy of scale especially suited for production at mega scale and with high CO2 recovery requirements. By far the most mature technology in the market.

    eREACT™ hydrogen
    Small-scale production

    eREACT™ hydrogen

    Can reduce the size of a traditional steam methane reformer by 100 times, delivering outstanding energy efficiency, zero flue gas emissions, and ultra-low carbon ...

    Carbon intensity

    Achieving the best shade of blue all comes back to carbon intensity (CI): the lower the CI, the more sustainable the solution.

    All our blue hydrogen technologies have incredibly low CI. With reforming and CO2 capture in one single-point license, we enable an industry-leading 99%+ carbon emission reduction.

    CO2 capture is easier from the process gas or PSA off-gas rather than flue gas due to higher partial pressure.​

    ​In SynCORTM blue hydrogen technology, it is possible to achieve a CI lower than 0.1 kgCO2/kgH2 solely by capturing the CO2 in the process.  In eREACTTM this is even lower.

    Blue hydrogen carbon intensity

    Choosing a hydrogen solutions shouldn't (just) be a question of color. It should be about reduction of Carbon Intensity (CI).

    Levelized cost of blue hydrogen

    Blue hydrogen production is a process that requires thought, collaboration, and a large amount of expertise. What it boils down to, however, is profit margins.
