SiGNa Chemistry successfully demonstrates hydrogen generation system

SiGNa Chemistry, Inc., “a green chemical technology company”, has announced the successful design, assembly, and initial testing of its H300 Hydrogen Generation System. The H300 uses real-time swappable cartridges that generate hydrogen on demand using SiGNa’s proprietary sodium silicide (NaSi) powder.

The H300 Hydrogen Generation System can be used in conjunction with portable fuel cell systems to provide a continuous supply of renewable power. According to Andrew Wallace, director of SiGNa Chemistry, Inc.: “The H300 platform provides the only high-performance, portable hydrogen generation system to the fuel cell industry”.

The H300 uses two hydrogen canisters that generate more than 800 litres of hydrogen at a continuous flow-rate, which supports a broad range of portable fuel cell applications including back-up power systems, emergency responder work-stations, military battery recharging, and electric bicycles. SiGNa has demonstrated hydrogen generation for applications ranging from 1 to 500W.

“With its award-winning technology, including inherently safe, air stable reactive metal powders, SiGNa continues to develop ground-breaking products for industrial applications,” says Michael Lefenfeld, President and CEO of SiGNa Chemistry, Inc. “The H300 Hydrogen Generator System allows us to easily showcase our effective materials to portable fuel cell system developers.”

SiGNa has collaborated with Trulite, Inc., a leading developer of portable and semi-portable hybrid power systems, to demonstrate its technology. Trulite’s FCS-300 PEM fuel cell system was used in combination with the H300 to delivers 300 W of continuous power. “Hydrogen storage continues to be the single most important piece of technology limiting portable fuel cell commercialisation, “says Ken Pearson, COO of Trulite, Inc. “High energy density, low cost, and start-stop capability are all critical market requirement areas that SiGNa’s NaSi powder technology has the potential to meet.”
