Demonstrating circularity for critical materials in proton exchange membrane (PEM) hydrogen technologies

Chemicals and sustainable technologies

Advanced materials including ionomers like Aquivion® for fuel cells and electrolysers

Johnson Matthey's chemical recycling process for PGMs from PEM CCMs without polymer incineration

Proton exchange membrane technology is used in hydrogen fuel cells and electrolyzers. The innovation center will be the first gigafactory dedicated to manufacturing PEM technology components.

Syensqo's complementary extraction, purification, and reconditioning of fluorinated ionomers

Kilo-scale demonstration of recycling PGMs via HyRefine™ and ionomers for reuse in MEAs

Chemical process for PGM recovery from PEM catalysts

Brand under which Solvay will bring hydrogen tanks and other H2 applications and components to the market, aiming for a central role in electrolyzer and fuel cell markets.
