Power2Hype Project

Hydrogen peroxide isn’t just a logistics challenge, it’s a stability one. H₂O₂ breaks down over time, affecting storage and transport. It’s not just about distance, it’s about time. ⏳ Power2Hype explores production closer to where it’s needed. 🎯

Lucia Mazzapioda (@syensqo) works in materials science and clean energy 👩🏻‍🔬, developing electrocatalysts and nanocomposite membranes for electrochemical systems. In Power2Hype, she supports materials that improve performance and durability in H₂O₂ production.

This month, we spotlight DiaCCon.🤝 This Power2Hype’s partner turns materials into electrochemical stacks, assemble them for the pilot unit and support the scale-up of H₂O₂ production. Hands-on engineering making Power2Hype’s sustainable H₂O₂ a scalable solution. 👏

Hydrogen peroxide is essential, but traditional production is energy & carbon-intensive. Power2Hype rethinks H₂O₂ through renewable-powered electrochemical processes for industry. 🧐 🧩 This series explores the questions behind the problem and the science behind the solutions.

Hydrogen peroxide is key in industry, but traditional production is energy-intensive and fossil-based. Power2Hype uses air, water & renewable energy for a cleaner, sustainable alternative💡, supporting the EU Green Deal and SDGs 7 & 12!🌱

Giulio Giometti (T4i) works at the intersection of materials engineering and H₂O₂ processing, leading systems for aerospace propellants. 🗣 In Power2Hype, he oversees T4i’s DSP unit, designed to concentrate electrolyser output to application-ready levels.

Meet our PhD talent: Maximilian Göltz from @FAU_Germany! 🎓 He is investigating how production parameters - like pressure and temperature - affect the performance of our BDD electrodes. 💎⚡ His goal? Ensuring a smooth transfer from research to industrial application. 🏭
