Hydrogen Gentech Private Limited (HGPL) has achieved a significant milestone by successfully commissioning a state-of-the-art Hydrogen Generation & Purification Plant based on Water Electrolysis technology at Divis Laboratories Limited, India. Divis Laboratories Limited, one of India’s leading pharmaceutical companies, boasts the world’s largest Active Pharmaceuticals Ingredients (API) manufacturing facility, equipped with advanced manufacturing and in-house analytical facilities. Notably, the company holds a substantial global market share, ranging from 60% to 85%, in generic naproxen, dextromethorphan, and gabapentin APIs, with a production process that is backward integrated.

HGPL’s contribution to this project involved a comprehensive scope of work, including design, engineering, manufacturing/supply, erection supervision, and commissioning. The Hydrogen plant facility consists of two independent streams, jointly capable of generating an impressive 3600 Nm3/day of high-purity Hydrogen. This high-purity hydrogen is a valuable resource utilized across diverse applications in the pharmaceutical, steel, glass, and chemical industries.

The heart of the facility is the Stack, which is essentially a series of cells where DC power is applied to initiate an electrolytic reaction at high pressure, effectively splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen. The process then involves the separation of raw hydrogen and oxygen from Lye and moisture, with oxygen being vented out while the hydrogen proceeds to the purification stage. Here, hydrogen is further purified using a deoxo reactor and subjected to a drying process, resulting in the production of high-purity dry hydrogen.

The facility’s operation is meticulously controlled by a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) system, ensuring seamless and automatic operation while adhering to international safety standards. HGPL’s expertise in designing, engineering, manufacturing, supplying, and successfully commissioning water electrolysis technology-based Hydrogen plants is a testament to their technical capabilities.

Hydrogen Gentech Private Limited (HGPL) is a renowned international EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) company specializing in technology-based Hydrogen Generation plants. Operating out of India, HGPL is dedicated to Green Hydrogen Generation, Purification, Recovery, Storage solutions, and their applications across various industries, including renewable energy, fuel, and mobility sectors. With a strong commitment to advancing hydrogen technology, HGPL continues to make significant strides in the field of hydrogen generation and its diverse applications.
