PERIC Selects ABB for Texas Pilot Plant Rectifier System
ABB UNIREC H2
The water-cooled ABB UNIREC H2 rectifier optimizes hydrogen production through efficient control and low maintenance costs.
ABB & PERIC
ABB has been chosen by Peric Hydrogen Technologies Co (Peric), a Chinese manufacturer of electrolyzers, to support the development of a pilot plant in the USA.
ABB's Thyristor Rectifier
ABB's rectifier for hydrogen electrolyzers is based on thyristor technology and ABB's latest control technology, featuring advanced regulation and protection functions.
Designed for Extreme Climatic Conditions
Given the plant's location in a difficult desert environment, the UNIREC H2 has been tested for extreme climatic conditions through digital simulations based on historical climate data.
Installation Project
To ensure the rectifier operates smoothly and enhances the plant's overall performance, ABB conducted factory acceptance tests. The UNIREC rectifier will soon be installed at the plant.
Space Saving and Low Maintenance
The rectifier has been designed for a small footprint and low maintenance costs, thanks to its compact features and reduced number of components.
Green Hydrogen Production Plant
The plant will convert renewable energy into green hydrogen and combine it with industrial-origin carbon dioxide (CO₂) to produce ultra-low carbon fuels.
