Engineering expertise in low-carbon ​technologies


​Ionect helps technology developers and industry teams make faster, informed decisions on low-carbon ​technologies for the chemical industry (hydrogen & electrolyzers, CO₂ reduction/CUU, Power-to-X and e-fuels).

​We deliver concept engineering, techno-economic assessments (TEA), independent design reviews and, when needed, hands-on scale-up support up to pilots and modular systems. 

Engineering

When you need a buildable concept before pre-FEED or pilot: we transform innovative technologies into structured engineering documentation ready for investment and industrial execution. 

Our engineering work includes: 

  • Process design and optimisation 
  • Process Flow Diagrams (PFD) development and system architecture
  • Heat and Mass balances
  • Equipment specification 
  • Electrochemical system integration
  • Safety studies (HAZID/HAZOP preparation support)
  • Design validation 

Our Services

Studies & Decision Support

When you need insights or a go/no-go based on feasibility, risk and economics, we provide: 

  • Techno-economic assessments (TEA) 

  • Process modelling and simulation 

  • Cost and profitability models 

  • Independent design reviews 

  • Market viability studies 

Technology Development

When you need hands-on support to implement, pilot or commission: we turn validated concepts into operating units. 

  • Electrolyzer integration and optimisation 

  • Modular pilot unit development 

  • Commissioning and troubleshooting 

  • Scale-up strategy support

CO₂ Reduction Technology & CCU

Carbon capture technologies (CCU) and CO₂ decarbonisation require rigorous technical evaluation. 

We assess conversion pathways, system integration and economic feasibility for: 

  • CO₂-to-fuels 

  • CO₂-to-chemicals 

  • Carbon-capture projects  

Typical questions we answer: 

  • Which CO₂ conversion pathway is feasible for my feedstock and energy profile? 

  • What does the TEA say under realistic electricity and CO₂ price scenarios?

Hydrogen Engineering & Electrolyzers

We support hydrogen production systems from technology validation to industrial integration. 

  • Electrolyzer system design 

  • Stack integration 

  • Balance of plant considerations 

  • Performance optimisation 

Typical questions we answer: 

  • Which electrolyzer technology fits my constraints and scale? 

  • What are the integration risks (BoP, utilities, interfaces) and how to mitigate them?

Flow Batteries & 

Green Energy Storage

We support the engineering and feasibility of flow batteries and long-duration energy storage systems connected to renewable power generation. 

Typical questions we answer: 

  • Is flow battery storage technically and economically viable for my duty cycle? 

  • What system architecture and sizing minimize cost and complexity?

Power-to-X & 

Green Fuel Technologies

Power-to-X (P2X) and green fuel technologies are key pillars of industrial decarbonisation. 

We provide: 

  • Process modelling 

  • Technology screening 

  • Engineering concept design 

  • Investment decision support 

Typical questions we answer: 

  • Which Power-to-X route makes sense for my site constraints and end-product? 

  • What are the key efficiency and cost drivers from concept to pilot?
