A world-first catalytic pathway

We developed a novel catalyst inspired by Nobel-recognised Metal–Organic Framework advances to enable the direct conversion of CO2 and H2 into acetic acid.

Unlike fossil routes, our process builds molecules from captured carbon, avoiding upstream emissions and unlocking carbon-negative production.

Core elements of the process

Feedstocks: Captured CO2 + green hydrogen

Reactor: Modular fixed-bed units designed for reliability and easy scale-up

Catalyst: Monash-origin, IP-protected, engineered for selectivity and stability

Output: Battery-grade acetic acid, ready for downstream derivatives

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-acetic acid selectivity minimises by-products and downstream separation.

Robust against typical impurities from carbon capture streams.

Engineered active sites deliver high space-time yields at industrially relevant conditions.
