Electrolysis of Water

9

Electrochemical reaction that splits water into Hydrogen and Oxygen, using electricity.

It is a 100% emission free and carbon-free process

2H₂O + Electricity 2H₂ + O₂


The cell stack: in-house core technology

Electrode:

Anode (O2)

IMET® Membrane

Electrode:

Cathode (H2)

No asbestos!!

• Every HySTAT® system is designed from an “integrated safety” perspective:

• 1st priority: elimination of actions likely to create a hazardous situation;

• 2nd priority: prevention of hazardous situations by integrated safety features;

• 3rd priority: mitigation of the effects of an occurring incident.

• PROFIsafe protocol ensuring a safe shut down in case of control failure (PLC)

• Fail safe logic for all parameters (over 30 parameters controlled)

• Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS): ensures a safe shutdown in case of power

failure

• Constant monitoring of gas purity (HTO)

• Inherent safe design (passive safety) allowing the unit to perform emergency

depressurization mechanically when the control features are down

Safety & Quality: Our first focus

19

Safety & Quality: Our first focus


• Minimal gas presence in the system (only few Nm3 at full production)

• Multiple redundancy on critical safety parameters.

• Safety switched on critical parameters triggering an alarm or stopping the unit (eg.

electrolyte level, cell stack t°, pressure in the system,…).

• Complete risk evaluation process performed

• ISO 9001, 14001 and OHSAS 18001

• Following the most stringent standards:

• EC (ATEX directive 94/9/EC), (NRTL or Rostechnadzor as an option)

• New Machine Directive (2006/42/EC)

• ISO 22734/1 (onsite hydrogen generation) and ISO 12100 (safety of machinery).

• IEC 61508, 62061 and 61511 (Functional Safety of electronic related systems)

20

Reliability & Automation

High quality equipment & strong engineering

• 15 Engineers constantly looking for improvements
