Hydrogen is well-known for its industrial use as a pollution-free fuel. The global hydrogen generation market size was estimated at USD 170.14 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of
Although hydrogen use is growing, the current production method and cost limits its full potential for broader adoption of on-site-on-demand hydrogen in industrial plants, hospitals and medical centers, and for treating various unmet medical needs. Worldwide hydrogen production is almost exclusively (
The collaboration between DiagnaMed and EIREX will focus on advancing the development of the commercial pilot prototype. DiagnaMed will also seek to establish partnerships with life sciences companies, hospitals and medical centers that would benefit from having its own source of hydrogen for not only operational purposes and energy backup, but also for medical treatments. Molecular hydrogen has been clinically demonstrated to provide antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. It can potentially aid in managing chronic diseases by diminishing oxidative stress and the associated inflammatory pathways. The cellular bioavailability of molecular hydrogen is high4 and has the potential for antiaging, neurodegenerative disorders (i.e. Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease), mental health conditions (i.e. Depression)4, diabetes, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory muscular disorders, transplantation, and diseases of the eye, pancreas, liver, lung, kidney, intestinal and skin5.
Fabio Chianelli, CEO of DiagnaMed, commented: “We are excited to evolve our business in developing novel methods of producing hydrogen for industrial use and medical applications for treating a variety of diseases and disorders. DiagnaMed aims to be a leader in providing molecular hydrogen. Our collaboration with EIREX will provide a foundation for reaching this goal.”
