In Hungary, eChemicles announced its strategic partnership with Bosch Thin Metal Technologies to accelerate the commercialization of a novel carbon dioxide utilization (CCU) technology.
The electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (i.e., its conversion to more reduced chemical species using electrical energy) is a promising waste-to-wealth approach, generating high-value, green chemicals which can be readily used in the chemical value chain in several industries (such as chemicals, steel, petrochemicals, plastics, and synthetic fuels). Coupled with carbon-free electricity sources, the process provides a completely environmentally sustainable solution.
eChemicles based in Hungary, Szeged, was formed in 2022, based on 8 years of cutting-edge research at the University of Szeged. Based on its proprietary membrane electrode assembly, stack, and system technologies, eChemicles has developed the world’s first containerized low temperature CO2 electrolyzer system, producing green CO. As the next step, eChemicles is scaling-up its best-in-class technology towards industrial capacities.
