Field result

A multinational beverage manufacturer's ten-plant fleet.

Field result

13% average steam-to-fuel ratio improvement across ten biomass-fired plants in seven Indian states, measured by YBG with client teams.

YBG's industrial oxyhydrogen work is referenced in a joint UIBC / Nangia Andersen report issued under NTPC's imprint.

NOx reduction of 60% was measured at instrumented stacks.

The client reports ₹7.6 Cr average annual fuel savings and payback under two years at all ten sites. (client-reported)

Independent literature

What the published research supports.

Independent literature

Published CFD and pilot-scale studies support the combustion science behind hydrogen-assisted combustion.

No large-scale independent field study yet exists for electrolytic oxyhydrogen co-firing in commercial coal-fired boilers.

No vendor, YBG included, currently operates an integrated system above 100 TPH equivalent capacity.

India execution

Execution partner.

Wevolve Projects is YBG's execution partner for thermal power and enterprise-wide rollouts in India; other projects use installers selected by the customer.

In India this work runs through the YBG Wevolve Consortium, whose members include Rajiv Nikam of Wevolve Projects Pvt Ltd.

Performance commitments are made per site, after assessment, on a steam-to-fuel-ratio basis.

FAQ

What is the documented HydroHub™ field result?

13% average steam-to-fuel ratio improvement across ten biomass-fired plants in seven Indian states, measured by YBG with client teams. NOx reduction of 60% was measured at instrumented stacks. The client reports ₹7.6 Cr average annual fuel savings and payback under two years at all ten sites.

Has electrolytic oxyhydrogen been proven in large coal-fired boilers?

No large-scale independent field study yet exists for electrolytic oxyhydrogen co-firing in commercial coal-fired boilers. No vendor, YBG included, currently operates an integrated system above 100 TPH equivalent capacity.
