Catalyzed ceramic nanofibers for chemical reactions
Petrochemicals refer to products made from the raw materials of petroleum or other hydrocarbons. nCATfiber technology can be used in petrochemical operations as a way to immobilize catalysts and speed up chemical reactions. Chemical processing plants sometimes waste reusable catalysts because it is difficult to immobilize catalyst materials while maintaining the beneficial properties of the catalysts. Read more...

nCATfiber technology can reduce pollution from power plants
nCATfiber reduces pollutants from combustion of coal, oil, and gas. Power generation plays a substantial role in the overall amount ofnitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter emitted each year. Read more...
Catalytic devices for gasoline and diesel engines.
nCATfiber can be used effectively in a large number of applications. We introduced NOXFOX catalytic filters to remove pollutants from the exhaust of small engines, such as lawn mowers, snow blowers, and garden equipment. The same technology can be used in large engines such as locomotives, marine engines, and power generators. Read more...
Additional uses
Nanofibers are versatile. They can be used in the medical industry to help deliver drugs and support tissue growth. Nanofibers are also incorporated into clothing to help wick away moisture. Recently nanofibers have been studied to work with photovoltaics, batteries, and fuel cells. Read more...
