Hydrogen fuel cells
Hydrogen fuel cells are a viable alternative to traditional fuels such as gasoline and diesel. We focus on high-quality, efficient catalysts for these devices.
PEM electrolysers
Electrolysis of water is currently the primary method for producing renewable electricity via green hydrogen, and this is set to continue. Our catalysts aim to reduce iridium consumption and demonstrate low lifetime degradation during long-term testing.
Solar energy
While most solar panels use standard silicon technology, we are leading the way with a powerful new material called perovskite.
Alkaline electrolysers
Alkaline electrolysers are a proven and cost-effective technology for producing green hydrogen by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity. Our next-generation catalyst builds on this reliable foundation, aiming to boost efficiency and durability for large-scale, sustainable hydrogen production.
Anodes for water

treatment
Sodium hypochlorite is growing in popularity as a method for water purification. Our goal is to develop anodes for sodium hypochlorite production with substantial improvements in energy efficiency.
Methane steam
reforming catalyst
reforming catalyst
Methane steam reforming (MSR) is the most popular method for converting natural gas into hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Our catalysts reduce energy consumption while making the equipment simpler and the process more environmentally friendly.
Glycolic acid
Glycolic acid (hydroxyacetic acid) has a high level of solubility and demonstrates good reactivity among the AHA (alpha hydroxycarboxylic acid) class. We are focusing on a catalyst technology for the safe, high-tech synthesis of glycolic acid.
FDCA (2,5-furandicarboxylic acid)
2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is a promising bio-based compound that has been extensively studied as a replacement for terephthalic acid (TA) in polyester production over the past decade. Our catalysts allow for the production of FDCA with the highest efficiency, while minimizing environmental impact.
