A world-first catalytic pathway

We developed a novel catalyst inspired by Nobel prize winning Metal–Organic Framework advances to enable the direct conversion of CO2 and H2 into ethanol

Unlike fossil routes, our process builds molecules from captured carbon, avoiding upstream emissions and unlocking production of ultra-low carbon chemicals.

Core elements of the process
Feedstocks: Captured CO2 + green hydrogen
Reactor: Modular fixed-bed units designed for reliability and easy scale-up
Catalyst: IP-protected, engineered for selectivity and stability
Output: e-ethanol, compliant-ready for transport fuel blending and ethanol-to-jet process
Why this matters
Single-step conversion reduces complexity, cost, and energy intensity, enabling decarbonisation without a green premium.
[The Catalyst]
Designed for selectivity, built for industry
High CO2-to-ethanol selectivity minimises by-products and downstream separation costs.
Robust against typical impurities from carbon capture streams.
Engineered active sites deliver high space-time yields at industrially relevant conditions.
