ProtonH2’s process utilizes existing oil infrastructure, and controlled a controlled O2 injection process which oxidizes the reservoir to produce H2.
ProtonH2’s Clear Hydrogen™ is a carbon-free, low-cost opportunity for extracting hydrogen using previously expensed infrastructure.
Step 1
Secure existing end-of-life hydrocarbon reserves and related infrastructure
Step 2
Deploy O2 injection process through existing or new wells
Step 3
Downhole chemical reactions oxidize residual hydrocarbons and generate syn-gas with high concentrations of H2
ISHG™ process naturally sequesters 15-20% of the CO2 generated
Step 4
Sell syn-gas / H2 blend into local markets with a focus on power generation
Step 5
Option to separate H2 at the surface to serve the H2 economy as demand dictates with backstop option for power generation
Step 6
Sequester produced CO2 using conventional methods (e.g., CSS), or sell into local markets for other forms of sequestration (e.g., EOR or agriculture)
