HYMET

HYMET – Study of innovative technologies for the transition of the metallurgical industry towards a circular economy based on the recovery of by-products from the production process itself and its decarbonisation through the use of renewable raw materials. 

• Funding body: CDTI 
• Call: Science and Innovation Missions 
• Partners: Compañía Española de Laminación (coord.), Técnicas Reunidas, AMES PM Tech Center, AE and Ariema. 
• Duration: 42 months (January 2021 – June 2024). 
• Total budget: €5,802,543.

The HYMET project aims to study new technologies applicable to the steel industry for the recovery of by-products from the production process itself and for decarbonisation through the use of hydrogen. 

In this project, Ariema designs and builds a hydrogen production system of up to 2 kW based on anion exchange membrane (AEM) technology.
