BurnStar’s “Guilt Free Hydrogen™” – A Game Changer for Heavy Industries

Can hydrogen truly decarbonize heavy industries without the CO₂ baggage? In Episode 2 of the H₂ Dialogue Podcast Series, Jackwell and Dr Johan unpack their breakthrough molten metal reforming process branded “Guilt Free Hydrogen™.”

19 Sep 2025 35:27 Minutes Video

Fresh from attending BurnStar’s launch event at the end of August 2025, this technology is more than a concept. It promises hydrogen production with zero process CO₂, modular deployment, and energy use claims up to 8× lower than electrolysis, a potential game changer for green steel, refining, and other hard‑to‑abate sectors.

What they covered in about 30 minutes:

  • How the technology works (and why it matters)
  • Use‑cases that pencil first in Southern Africa
  • Bankability, risk, and what early adopters need to know
  • Myth‑busting: cost, carbon disposal, and scale

The agricultural sector has been hardest hit, with 20% of loans turning bad, followed closely by the real estate sector at 18%.
