Innovation Project
HyTech
Biological hydrogen production for a sustainable energy economy
Hydrogen production
The aim of the HyTech project is to produce hydrogen regeneratively using innovative biohydrogen technology (dark fermentation). For this purpose, the process (2-stage) is operated on a semi-industrial scale and the data basis for a scale-up is created through a comprehensive test programme. The project is investigating innovative reactor designs that increase the overall efficiency of the process by retaining microorganisms. In addition, biogenic residual and wastewater streams are used for hydrogen production.
