CoorsTek, Inc., the global leader in technical ceramics with over 50 manufacturing locations worldwide, engineers advanced ceramic materials and components for hydrogen equipment including active ceramic membranes, solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC), solid oxide electrolyzer cells (SOEC), and porous silicon carbide kiln furniture. CoorsTek Membrane Sciences developed a breakthrough proton-conducting ceramic membrane (made from oxides of barium, zirconium, and yttrium) that generates compressed hydrogen from natural gas, biogas, or ammonia and electricity in a one-step process with near-zero energy loss, published in Nature Energy and Science, achieving overall hydrogen production efficiency for fuel cell vehicles of 41% versus 17% for water electrolysis. The company's ceramic membrane technology, built from small cells joined into stacks and modules, enables scalable hydrogen generators using a novel nickel-based glass-ceramic composite interconnect material, and CoorsTek also supplies MEA plates and fuel cell integrator components compatible with DMFC, molten carbonate, phosphoric acid, PEM, and solid oxide fuel cell technologies. With 20+ years of ceramic membrane development experience, CoorsTek positions its technology to make hydrogen infrastructure for fuel cell electric vehicles a practical, cost-competitive reality.
