WFBR advances high-purity H2O2 production with non-noble metal catalysts

The importance of digitalisation and AI for process optimisation

An electrifying week in Braunschweig!

Power2Hype was represented by partenrs in the Electrochemistry 2024 conference, organised in Braunschweig, between the 16 and 19 of September 2024.

Power2Hype hits key milestone – First Review Meeting successfully done!

The partners of Power2Hype gathered on the 30th September 2024 at Solvay’s headquarters in Brussels to mark a key milestone: the project’s first review meeting with the European Commission.

Fraunhofer IGB advances paired electrolysis for sustainable hydrogen peroxide production

As part of the Power2Hype project, the Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology (IGB) is driving the development of a sustainable and innovative approach to pair the cathodic and anodic production of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂).

Pioneering Sustainable and Economically Viable Hydrogen Peroxide Production

The Power2Hype project represents a significant breakthrough in the sustainable production of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). Through an innovative electrochemical process, Power2Hype uses renewable energy sources, air, and water for producing H₂O₂, thereby drastically reducing the reliance on fossil fuels traditionally used in H₂O₂ production.

Pioneering Carbon-Neutral H₂O₂ Production – It is Time to Design and Build the Test Unit

Solvay, in collaboration with its eleven consortium partners, proudly takes part in the Power2Hype project. This innovative initiative aims to revolutionise hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) production by demonstrating a pilot unit capable of achieving a carbon-neutral footprint, significantly enhancing the environmental benefits of this essential chemical. After a year and a half of rigorous development, the project has now advanced to a critical phase with the design and construction of the pilot plant stack in work package 5 (WP5) underway.

Framing the impacts of sustainable hydrogen peroxide production!

We're sharing some insights into our latest research activities in the WP7 Technology Impact Assessment under the Power2Hype project. Our focus: scaling up and rolling out efficient, eco-friendly H₂O₂ (hydrogen peroxide) production via the novel power2hype approach. H₂O₂ is an incredibly versatile and essential chemical used in a variety of industries, from paper bleaching to chemical synthesis.

Combined CVD-PVD coating: Metal particles on BDD

The Power2Hype project is innovating hydrogen peroxide production through a novel combined Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) and Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) coating process. By integrating boron-doped diamond (BDD) with metallic catalyst particles, the project aims to enhance the electrochemical production of hydrogen peroxide.
