Consortium Introduces Molten Salt Regeneration System for CCU
UP Catalyst, a leading Estonian nanotechnology company, will, together with a consortium of industry experts develop a revolutionary molten- salt- regeneration technology based on circular- economy principles. The new system has the potential to, significantly reduce waste, and it allows the reuse of carbonate salt up to 100 times. The project, named MoReCCU, has received […]
UP Catalyst disrupts the heavily China-reliant supply chain of graphite with the aim to help European battery manufacturers
The surge in graphite demand has put pressure on Europe, which imports almost 98% of the graphite it uses. The valuable mineral for electric vehicle (EV) batteries is now considered a critical raw material. Graphite production comes with a huge environmental and supply chain risk which is being challenged by an Estonian company UP Catalyst. […]
UP Catalyst receives €1.2 M to produce the greenest multipurpose carbon materials
Estonian technology startup UP Catalyst in partnership with the National Institute of Chemical Physics and Biophysics (NICPB) begins developing an automated process to produce sustainable carbon out of CO2 and biomass which characteristics can be adapted to any potential application. Thus, making it one of the most multipurpose materials in the world. The 2-year project aimed […]
TOP 10 battery manufacturers to use sustainable carbon nanomaterials to level up their production in 2022
The rapidly increasing carbon emissions are the main cause of climate change and global warming. Annual global emissions of CO₂ amount up to 40 billion tonnes, out of which a significant share comes from the transport sector and from fossil fuel combustion. The threat is undeniable and the adoption of electric vehicles appears to be vital at […]
