Membrane-based hydrogen recovery uses selective polymer or composite membranes to separate hydrogen from mixed gas streams, such as off-gases from refineries, petrochemical plants, or other industrial processes, allowing hydrogen to be captured and reused rather than flared or vented.[1] Air Products Membrane Solutions designs and manufactures membrane modules that can concentrate hydrogen from these streams, providing industrial customers with an additional hydrogen source while reducing waste and emissions.[1]

Cleaner marine fuels support via gas membranes refers to membrane-based systems that help produce or condition gases and fuels used in the maritime sector, such as supplying nitrogen for inerting fuel tanks or enabling gas quality control in low-sulfur or alternative marine fuel operations.[1] The article notes that Air Products’ Missouri expansion will address cleaner marine fuels, linking membrane production to environmental improvements in shipping.[1]

Membrane nitrogen generation for aerospace applications uses gas separation membranes to produce nitrogen-enriched air used in aircraft fuel tank inerting systems and other safety-related applications where oxygen levels must be reduced to mitigate fire and explosion risks.[1] The Missouri expansion is described as supporting aerospace nitrogen, indicating production of membrane modules or systems tailored for aviation customers.[1]

A US$70 million expansion of Air Products’ Manufacturing and Logistics Center near St. Louis, Missouri, aimed at increasing capacity for membrane-based solutions serving biogas and hydrogen recovery, aerospace nitrogen, and cleaner marine fuels, and expected to create more than 70 new positions.

A family of membrane-based gas separation products used for applications such as hydrogen recovery, biogas upgrading, nitrogen generation for aerospace and marine markets, and other industrial gas separations; the Missouri facility expansion is dedicated to increasing manufacturing and logistics capability for these membrane solutions.[1]
