BIOEC_e-ASIA

Integrated Biomass Upgrading: Advancing Hydrogen and Valuable Green Chemicals through Electroreforming (BIOEC) is a cooperative research project aims to revolutionize green hydrogen production through a novel biomass electrolysis technique, providing an economically feasible alternative to traditional water splitting methods. By significantly reducing costs and valorizing oxidized by-products, the project focuses on developing a scalable system for converting waste to fuel, tailored to the waste streams of partner countries. This approach promises a targeted, efficient solution for sustainable energy production.

Project Background

Biomass electrolysis for hydrogen production is advancing sustainable energy by efficiently generating hydrogen fuel while producing valuable by-products, aligning with a circular economy. This project aims to develop a cost-effective and robust biomass electrolysis system through an international collaboration of four research teams.

Japan specializes in advanced inorganic materials for electrochemical conversion.
Thailand focuses on electrode fabrication, testing, and operando X-ray analysis to optimize catalyst performance.
New Zealand leads in scaling electrochemical processes, enabling commercialization.

Together, we strive to overcome technical and economic barriers, paving the way for scalable, eco-friendly hydrogen production.
