Description

Research, testing, and experimental validation infrastructure for the synthesis of synthetic fuels (e-fuels) from renewable hydrogen (H₂) and captured CO₂. It enables the testing of catalysts, reactors, heat exchangers, and integrated synthesis and capture processes under operating conditions representative of industrial environments, facilitating the development and validation of Power-to-X solutions.

Equipment

  • Catalytic reactors for CO₂.
  • Test benches for catalysts and electrodes.
  • Heat exchangers.
  • Integration of Power-to-X processes under realistic operating conditions.
  • Gas purification and handling systems.
Services
  • Testing and validation of e-fuel synthesis processes.
  • Development and testing of catalysts and electrodes.
  • Experimental validation under representative operating conditions.
  • Process integration testing (capture + synthesis) and support for Power-to-X development.
