NANOGAP’s unique Metal-Molecules are revolutionizing the catalyst industry with new thermo-, photo-, and electro-catalysts that can mimic the behavior of conventional catalysts, but using non-scarce, non-Pt group metals, at low loading levels, lower in-use cost and with higher stability. And we can go beyond that, significantly improving the efficiency of existing processes with lower temperature operation and higher yields. And further still, our Metal Molecule catalysts can make the development of new processes possible, all the above contributing to a cleaner industry. An example is our work on low temperature water gas shift where we are working on improving reaction kinetics at low temperature where the thermodynamics will favor higher conversion to H2. This is potentially significant for the energy transition as it could be used to increase blue hydrogen purity making it suitable for fuel cell generation of electricity in blue hydrogen production locations where hydrogen transport is problematic. Other areas of interest include CO2 valorization, methane valorization, and direct oxidation of propylene to propylene oxide (DOPO)
