EDREI BIO HYDROGEN
About
About
Edrei Bio Hydrogen (EBH) is an Israeli start-up company founded by Jacob Edrei in 2011. The company has developed new groundbreaking system for accelerated Biomass and Hydrogen production based on biochemical processes, in which H2 is derived simultaneously from decomposition of organic materials and water splitting.
Our Vision
Our Vision
EBH aims to turn this clean & renewable source of energy into a highly affordable and commonly used alternative to the current polluting conventional sources for energy production.
Our unique technology will reach Hydrogen production rate which is 240-300 times higher than current methods used in other labs, which will reduce Hydrogen production cost between 0.12$/kg to 0.58$/kg compared to 1.7$/kg to 3.2$/kg in the current industrial market. This new price level will put Hydrogen as a new sustainable source of energy.
The Challenge
The Challenge
H2 production from algae entails huge potential for creating a sustainable source of energy; however, the best results of producing bio-hydrogen in labs around the world are 7-11ml of H2 per hour per 1 liter of biomass solution. The threshold to reach hydrogen productivity that is cost effective is 200 ml of H2 output per hour per one liter of biomass.
Our Unique Value proposal
Our Unique Value Proposal
✓ The area needed for our system is 1,000 times smaller than the area needed for Hydrogen production by SMR.
✓ No need for shipment and storage. The Hydrogen is produced and delivered in situ, thus, reducing shipment costs between 7$ to 8$ per 1.0 kg of Hydrogen.
✓ Our Hydrogen is 100% green. No carbon emission. The process is consuming CO2.
✓ Building cost is cheaper than building costs of ponds and tubular reactors.
✓ Cheap synthetic fuels for transportation.
✓ Cheap Hydrogen for transportation.
Main achievements
Main Achievents
During the past several years, the company has conducted wide range of R&D activities as well as series of feasibility experiments in several leading institutions (Israeli Technion, Haifa University and in CEEBIOS, Senlis, France). We have demonstrated the ability to produce hydrogen in a rate which is 3-6 times higher than the current methods used in other labs as presented in the following chart:
Market Potential
Market Potential
The H2 market is projected to be worth $154.74B by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 6.07%. In addition, the global algae-based products market is expected to reach $44.7B by 2023. Our bioreactor will provide significant competitive advantage to all algae related sectors as well.
