GENERON Hydrogen Recovery Systems

The demand for cleaner and higher-value fuels, chemical products and production of electronics are growing worldwide due to the increased use of hydro-treating and hydro-cracking. The processes used for generating hydrogen typically create residual gas streams or by-products, that still contain a significant amount of valuable pressurized hydrogen. Alternate technologies to recover and purify hydrogen rich gas streams include PSA (pressure swing adsorption) technology. GENERON® PSA technology is used when ultra-pure hydrogen (99.9% to 99.999+%) is required. GENERON® membrane filters are applied to more economically recover hydrogen from hydrogen rich gas streams with minimal losses of 1 to 10% of your valuable hydrogen. Using GENERON® membrane filters in such separations will achieve hydrogen product purities from 90 to 99.9%. GENERON® membrane filters are applied to economically recover hydrogen from gas streams with only 1 to 10% of your valuable hydrogen. Using GENERON® membrane filters will deliver hydrogen product purities from 90 to 99.9%.
