CERATIZIT Hydrogen for Carbide Industry
Locations
Involved Entities
CERATIZIT (CER), LuxEnergie (LEN), Paul Wurth (PW)
Description
CERATIZIT utilizes hydrogen in its industrial processes, including tungsten oxide reduction, dewaxing, sintering, and coating operations. This use case aims to replace fossil-based grey hydrogen with green hydrogen, maintaining process efficiency while reducing the carbon footprint.
Key Activities
- Green Hydrogen Supply: Ensuring a continuous and reliable supply of green hydrogen to CERATIZIT’s manufacturing facilities.
- Process Integration: Integrating hydrogen into critical industrial processes and conducting risk assessments to ensure safety and efficiency.
- Performance Monitoring: Evaluating the performance and environmental impact of green hydrogen in industrial applications.
Benefits
- Carbon Reduction: Significant reduction in CO2 emissions from industrial processes.
- Higher Supply Chain Reliability: local green hydrogen production through renewable energy sources reduces the dependence on volatile fossil fuels markets and imported grey hydrogen.
