HYIELD:

Building Europe’s first industrial-scale
waste-to-hydrogen plant.

THE HYIELD PROJECT

Europe currently produces 300 million tons of waste with the potential to produce over 30 million tons of green hydrogen. It is this potential that HYIELD aims to unlock.

During the 4-year project, innovative technologies and processes will be integrated to convert biogenic waste streams efficiently and robustly into high purity green hydrogen. The solution is based on a multi-stage gasification and gas cleaning process based on the WtEnergy Cleantech and water-gas-shift membrane reactor from H2Site to upgrade syngas and separate hydrogen (H2) to achieve >99.97% purity hydrogen. The demonstration plant will be implemented at CEMEX’s cement factory in Alcanar, Spain, where the green hydrogen will improve the renewable share of fuel mix in clinker production.

THE CONSORTIUM

The HYIELD consortium comprises 3 research centres, 4 technology developers, 5 industrial end-users, 1 waste manager and 2 specialists. The consortium comprises expertise in waste management, hydrogen, materials science, thermo-chemical process engineering and technology development and scale-up.

Under the coordination of MAGTEL, the HYIELD project consortium is formed by other Spanish partners: WTENERGY ADVANCED SOLUTIONS, H2SITE, CEMEX, VEOLIA, ENAGAS, EURECAT, CETAQUA, INVENIAM GROUP and INSTITUTO DE CARBOQUÍMICA DEL CSIC; along with MINCATEC ENERGY (France), SINTEF (Norway), ARISTENG (Luxembourg), ARCELORMITTAL (Germany) and SYNHELION (Switzerland).
