Ion Exchange Resin for Green Hydrogen Production Wins Silver Edison Award
Water purification technology for cost-effective production of green hydrogen wins Edison Award in the Energy Storage and Management Category
WILMINGTON, Del. – DuPont (NYSE:DD) today announced that the AmberLite
P2X110 ion exchange resin, its first mixed bed resin dedicated to the production of green hydrogen, received a Silver Edison Award at the annual ceremony in Fort Myers, Florida on April 3. The AmberLite P2X110 ion exchange resin is specifically designed to enable longevity and efficiency during the production of hydrogen from water.
“It’s a tremendous honor to receive a Silver Edison Award for a first-of-its-kind innovation aimed at addressing the world’s growing water and energy demands,” said Jeroen Bloemhard, Vice President and General Manager, DuPont Water Solutions. “The roles of water and renewable sources of energy are inextricably linked—without water, there is no green hydrogen.”
Green hydrogen is produced by renewable energy-powered electrolysis, which splits the water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. Little-to-no greenhouse gas emissions are generated during its production, making it a low-carbon alternative to traditional hydrogen production methods that rely on fossil fuels.
High-purity water is crucial for the efficiency and longevity of the Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzers that produce hydrogen from water. The AmberLite P2X110 ion exchange resin offers durable and reliable water quality that helps remove impurities and prevent contaminant build-up that can cause damage in electrolyzer equipment. Designed to endure the thermal and chemical challenges presented in an electrolyzer, the AmberLite P2X110 ion exchange resin’s specially tailored formula helps provide longer and more robust performance than industry-generic resins.
The Edison Awards is an annual competition honoring excellence in new product and service development, marketing, human-centered design, and innovation. The 2025 Edison Awards represents the fourth consecutive year that DuPont Water Solutions has been recognized. FilmTec LiNE-XD nanofiltration elements won a Bronze Edison Award in 2024, FilmTec Fortilife CR200 elements won a Silver Edison Award in 2023, and FilmTec Dry Seawater Reverse Osmosis membranes won a Gold Edison Award in 2022.
DuPont Water Solutions’ technologies are helping to purify more than 50 million gallons of water every minute in 112 countries across the world. DuPont offers market-leading technologies to address a variety of challenges faced by water treatment municipalities, seawater desalination plants, and industrial water users, including the microelectronics industry, through a broad portfolio of membranes, resins and complete systems. The team is also innovating solutions that can help balance the world’s growing water and energy demands, with products that support the production of electricity, lithium and green hydrogen.
