HyGear exhibits at Glasstec Dusseldorf

Date: 8 August 2014

HyGear will be present at the Glasstec fair booth D56 in Hall 15 in Dusseldorf (Germany), from 21-24 October 2014.

With over 40.000 visitors and almost 2.000 exhibitors, Glasstec is the world largest glass trade fair for the glass industry and suppliers.   HyGear will show its cost effective Hydrogen Generation System, that produces 5-100 Nm3 hydrogen per hour by Steam Methane Reforming (of natural gas).Furthermore, HyGear will present its high tech developments for the glass industry like the Thermo Chemical Recuperator (TCR) and the Hydrogen/Nitrogen Gas Recovery System (GRS).The TCR uses waste heat from the furnace to facilitate the reform reaction.The high calorific syngas mixture that is created by this reaction will be used to heat up the furnace. This decreases the energy losses and natural gas consumption.

The GRS recovers the nitrogen and hydrogen from the float glass production process, leading to enormous savings in hydrogen/nitrogen consumption.

You are very welcome to visit HyGear at Booth D56 in Hall 15 from Tuesday the 21st of October till Friday the 24th. Please contact Ms. Petra Barelds at petra.barelds[at]hygear.nl if you want to set up a meeting. To learn more about the fair; please look at www.glasstec-online.com.
