Industry Problem

Chemical manufacturing depends on fossil carbon while industrial CO2 emissions remain underused.

R&D Focus

Electrochemical CO2 conversion, gas-diffusion electrodes, electrolyzers, ethylene, and chemical feedstocks.

Innovative Solution

An electrolyzer converts captured CO2 into fuels and chemical feedstocks using renewable electricity.

Solution Effectiveness

A government project profile reports 1,400 consecutive operating hours and a scale increase of about 10,000 times from early laboratory work.
