Problem
The pulp and paper industry relies on hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) for bleaching, but traditional bulk production and transportation methods lead to high costs, environmental waste, and safety concerns related to handling concentrated chemicals. Supply chain disruptions can also impact the availability and price stability of this essential chemical.
Solution
Phase Two Chemicals offers an electrochemical system for on-site, on-demand production of hydrogen peroxide, eliminating the need for transportation and storage of bulk chemicals. Their modular systems use a proprietary Phase Dispersion Electrode (PDE) technology to maximize the efficiency of H₂O₂ production using only air, water, and electricity as inputs, with no waste generated. This approach reduces costs, improves safety by eliminating the handling of high-concentration H₂O₂, and enhances supply chain reliability. The system's design allows for operational flexibility, enabling mills to adjust production to meet changing demands with minimal startup time and energy impact.
Target Audience
The primary target audience is pulp and paper mills seeking a cost-effective, sustainable, and reliable supply of hydrogen peroxide for bleaching processes.
