Market Research has released a new market report titled “U.S.
On-Site Hydrogen Generator Market, by Category [Alkaline and
Non-Alkaline (Proton Exchange Membrane)] and by Flow Rate (<100Nm3/h,
100-2,000Nm3/h, and >2,000Nm3/h) – U.S. Industry Analysis, Size,
Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2015–2023.” According to this
report, the U.S.
on-site hydrogen generator market was valued at US$99 mn in 2014
and is projected to reach US$154 mn by 2023 at a CAGR of 5.0% from
2015 to 2023.
On-site
hydrogen generators utilize platinum catalyst and proton exchange
membrane (PEM) technology to fragment deionized water into its
constituent parts. Hydrogen is generated at 13.8 bar/200 psi pressure
without a compressor and with a purity of 99.9995% constantly and
without operator intervention. On-site hydrogen generators provide
reliable and low-cost hydrogen and increase security and safety by
eliminating cylinder handling, hydrogen storage, and routine hydrogen
delivery. Steam reforming, cracking, gasification, and electrolysis
are some of the major technologies used to produce hydrogen.
Additionally, steam reforming is one of the most dominant technology
employed in large-scale hydrogen production using natural gas,
naphtha, kerosene, or LPG as a feedstock.
Steam
methane reforming is the most economical way to produce hydrogen. It
involves two primary reactions: the reforming reaction and the water
gas shift reaction. In the reforming reaction, natural gas is mixed
with steam and is heated at very high temperatures to produce carbon
monoxide and hydrogen. In order to produce additional hydrogen,
carbon monoxide from the reforming reaction interacts with steam in
the water gas shift reactor. Commonly utilized feedstocks in steam
reformers are natural gas and naphtha. Steam reformers are segmented
based on the type such as pre-reformers, primary reformers, compact
reformers, and secondary reformers.
Hydrogen
is used in a large number of applications ranging from petroleum
recovery, chemical processing, and refining to fuel cells and metal
production. However, petroleum recovery and ammonia production are
the major markets for hydrogen. The global transportation industry is
growing at a high rate and is considered to be one of the most
attractive markets for hydrogen in the future. Category and flow rate
segments are likely to be the major markets for on-site hydrogen
generators in the near future. Increasing application of fuel cells
is likely to stimulate the market demand for on-site hydrogen
generators during the forecast period. The industry trend is likely
to show preference toward smaller sized hydrogen generators in the
future. However, majority of such hydrogen generators are still in
the development and prototyping phase.

With
the increasing number of refineries and petrochemical complexes
coming up in the U.S., the on-site hydrogen generator market is
likely to grow at a high rate in the future. Large populations in the
U.S. also significantly boost the demand for hydrogen in ammonia
production capacities, further increasing the demand for on-site
hydrogen generators.
The
on-site hydrogen generator market has been segmented on the basis of
category and flow rate. In 2014, 100-2,000Nm3/h flow rate segment
accounted for nearly 44% of the overall market share in the U.S.
Additionally, flow rate segments lesser than 100Nm3/h and greater
than 2,000Nm3/h occupied the market shares of nearly 32% and 24%,
respectively, in the same year. On-site hydrogen generators with a
flow rate of <100Nm3/h are high in demand due to their compactness
and efficient operation. Considering the fact that the on-site
hydrogen generators ranging 100-2,000Nm3/h are used mostly in all
types of industrial applications, demand for these generators is
anticipated to be high during the forecast period.
The
on-site hydrogen generator market has been segmented as follows:
U.S.
On-Site Hydrogen Generator Market: By Category
- Alkaline
- Non-Alkaline (Proton Exchange Membrane)
U.S.
On-Site Hydrogen Generator Market: By Flow Rate
- <100Nm3/h
- 100-2,000Nm3/h
- >2,000Nm3/h
