| I will talk about the journey of NitroVolt, from early-stage electrochemical research project to seed-stage startup building the first demo unit.
The overwhelming majority of the industrial ammonia production today is based on the Haber-Bosch process, which leads to immense CO2 emissions, and complicated supply chain dependencies. We have found a novel method that fits in a container, and can produce sustainable ammonia, on-site, from only air, water and green electricity. This novel and groundbreaking electrochemical process is room temperature and low pressure, using electricity as the driving force, thereby perfectly matching renewable energy intermittency. We will cover our newest work, wherein we have built the world’s largest 400 cm2 electrochemical flow cell stack to achieve continuous production of ammonia. This lays the groundwork for upscaling the production multi-stack operation, and then to a container-sized system, thereby paving the way towards each farm having their own NitroBox providing green ammonia on demand, and securing resilience towards supply-chain disruptions for the farmer. |
