CO and CO2 Electrolysis Scale-Up Project

planned

This project involves scaling up electrolysis technology that converts carbon waste gas into useful platform chemicals such as carbon monoxide, formate, methanol, ethylene, and acetic acid. The goal is to transition from lab-sized devices to commercial-scale systems that support the circular economy by enabling chemical transformation and manufacturing. Key challenges include optimizing compression, temperature control, flow uniformity, and cost efficiency. The project is led by Professor Feng Jiao and his startup Lectrolyst, with support from the Gates Foundation and the National Science Foundation.
