Newly designed ion exchange resin with extended service time
designed to enhance electrolyzer operation
WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 26,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- DuPont (NYSE:DD) today announced
the launch of its first product dedicated to the production of
green hydrogen – the DuPont™ AmberLite™ P2X110 Ion Exchange Resin.
To support the production of hydrogen from water, this newly
available ion exchange resin is designed for the unique chemistry
of electrolyzer loops.
"The pursuit of new sources of clean energy is critical, with
green hydrogen well positioned to substantially reduce global
carbon emissions," said Alan Chan,
Global Vice President and General Manager, DuPont Water Solutions.
"At DuPont Water Solutions, we are very excited to introduce our
AmberLite™ P2X110 Ion Exchange Resin in support of these trends
toward electrification and decarbonization."
Hydrogen can be produced by several methods from different
feedstocks. Green hydrogen, which is produced from water by
renewable energy-powered electrolysis, can play several major roles
in the energy transformation—contributing to the decarbonization of
transportation, heat and energy, and as greener feedstock.
Electrolysis is the process of electrically splitting the water
molecules into hydrogen and oxygen gas, and while there are various
types of electrolyzers, they all rely on high-purity water as the
feedstock to produce hydrogen.
"Our multi-tech portfolio can help create the high-purity water
that electrolyzers require with our ultrafiltration, ion exchange,
biofouling prevention, reverse osmosis and electrodeionization
solutions," said Verónica Garcia
Molina, Global Market Leader, Industrial Water & Energy,
DuPont Water Solutions. "The launch of our AmberLite™ P2X110 Ion
Exchange Resin is an exciting first step into the Green Hydrogen
market."
Designed to endure the thermal and chemical challenges presented
in an electrolyzer, the AmberLite™ P2X110 Ion Exchange Resin's
recipe offers durable and reliable water quality that helps prevent
contaminant build-up in the electrolyzer loop. These customized
features, and improved removal capacity, present a differentiated
option for electrolyzers with more service time than industry
generic resins.
DuPont's water technologies help purify more than 50 million
gallons of water every minute around the world, enable water reuse
and recycling, desalination, and the safe access of both ground and
surface water. DuPont offers solutions to a variety of water and
sustainability challenges faced by industrial water users and water
treatment municipalities through a broad portfolio of membranes,
resins and systems (including reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, ion
exchange resins (IEX), ultrafiltration (UF), electrodeionization
(EDI), nanofiltration (NF), membrane bioreactor systems (MBR),
membrane aerated biofilm reactors (MABR), and closed-circuit
reverse osmosis (CCRO) systems).
