D8.4 – Potential of Retrofitting and Developed Analysis Technologies for Cross-Sectorial Usage

This report presents an assessment of the potential for transferring the key exploitable results (KERs) developed within the HyInHeat project to industrial sectors beyond the steel and aluminium industries. It serves as a summary of the activities conducted within Task 8.3 of the HyInHeat project. As industries across Europe seek to decarbonise high-temperature processes, technologies that enable hydrogen combustion, process monitoring, emissions control, and safety management are becoming increasingly important. Understanding how these innovations can be applied across different industrial sectors is essential for maximising their impact and accelerating the adoption of hydrogen technologies.

The analysis focuses on seven key exploitable results developed within HyInHeat, including hydrogen combustion burners, flow measurement technologies, calorimeters, emission monitoring systems, optical emission spectroscopy systems, ultrasonic flow meters, and hydrogen safety training materials. Their applicability has been evaluated across a range of energy-intensive industries, including glass, cement, ceramics, minerals, chemicals, refining, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, and oil and gas. The report also examines exploitation pathways, intellectual property considerations, and the environmental, technological, and economic benefits associated with broader deployment of these technologies.

Task 8.3 is led by TECNALIA Research & Innovation with contributions from consortium partners including NTNU, Endress+Hauser SICK (EHS), SARRALLE and Luxmet.
