Value Proposition: Low-cost, clean synthetic fuels and chemicals from waste carbon resources and microwave technology.
Technology and Approach: Producing clean fuels and chemicals is energy-intensive and sensitive to electricity price. By focusing on energy efficiency, electricity cost is desensitized, and thus critical to reaching petrochemical cost parity at modern fuel standards. At MCatalysis, we have designed a catalog of particles that are concurrently catalysts and strong microwave absorbers for a broad range of feedstocks and value-add products. Microwave energy penetrates deeply for even heating and >98% energy absorption.
