Billions worth of hydrogen is lost every year at petrochemical plants and in the process hundreds of millions of tons of CO2 are emitted. DiviGas has invented proprietary polymers to make a new hydrogen membrane, a nano-molecular polymer filter for plants, that allows for this wasted gas to be reused and for as much as 2.5% of the entire world's CO2 emission to be captured.

A >15$ billions market of hydrogen separation & avoiding >750 millions tons of CO2 per year. We are shipping our first industrial-scale on-site units by end of 2021, executing on the first tranch of the >$50m of client demand waiting for our product.

SeeO2 Energy is developing an electrolyser that can produce high-value industrial gases by converting CO2 to carbon monoxide, CO2, and water to syngas (a mixture of CO and H2) and water to hydrogen. These gases are used in the green plastics, chemical, petrochemical, and metal-processing industries, but they are currently produced primarily from fossil sources.

SeeO2's technology, which is built on solid oxide electrolysis cells and a proprietary high-performance, low-cost electrocatalyst material, is uniquely tolerant of impurities such as sulfur, allowing the use of CO2 from power plants and other combustion processes, thus capturing and utilizing these emissions before they are emitted to the atmosphere as a greenhouse gas.
