Overview
Oxford Catalysts produces specialty catalysts for the generation of clean fuels, from both conventional fossil fuels and renewable sources such as biomass.
Innovating energy
Our patented intellectual property and technology is the result of almost 19 years of research at the University of Oxford's prestigious Wolfson Catalysis Centre, headed by company co-founder Professor Malcolm Green, one of the world's most respected inorganic chemists.
Each of our catalysts boasts several of the following key benefits:
- Greater cost effectiveness
- Higher productivity
- Better selectivity (leading to higher quality output)
- Increased resistance to contaminants
- Longer operational life
Core products include catalysts for the following markets:
- Petro/chemicals: removing sulphur from gasoline/diesel and converting natural gas or coal into ultra-clean
liquid fuels - Fuel Cells: generating hydrogen-on-demand from methanol starting at room temperature or from conventional hydrocarbon fuels by reforming at higher temperatures
- Biogas Conversion: transforming waste methane into the chemical building blocks of liquid fuels
- Portable Steam: creating superheated steam instantaneously from methanol and hydrogen peroxide
