Johnson Matthey converts green hydrogen to synthetic hydrocarbons

Firm believes new hycogen technology will be particularly beneficial for hard-to-decarbonise aviation sector

Technology firm Johnson Matthey has launched a new technology that converts green hydrogen into a feedstock for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). The firm’s hycogen technology is a catalysed process to convert green hydrogen and carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide, which is combined with additional hydrogen to form synthesis gas (syngas). This synthesis gas can be turned into synthetic hydrocarbons through a Fischer Tropsch process the firm calls ‘FT Cans’. The process was developed in collaboration with BP. The scalability of the integrated hycogen-FT Cans solution means it is suitable for small-scale single electrolyser projects as well as commercial-scale projects with multiple large elect
