Metacon has through its subsidiary Metacon SA, Patras, Greece received an order for a technical feasibility study from a US-based global leader in the chemical manufacturing industry. Contract value is EUR 210 000.
STOCKHOLM, June 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The purpose of the study is to explore alternative ways to produce high-value chemical compounds, while minimizing or eliminating carbon dioxide or other undesired emissions. The primary aim of the project is to evaluate the suitability of Metacon's HIWAR® reactor for making certain chemical production processes more efficient. HIWAR® is a reactor technology developed by Metacon's subsidiary Metacon SA and originally used in other applications such as hydrogen production from catalytic steam reforming of biogas (methane), ethanol or ammonia cracking. The reactor technology will be specifically adapted to match different testing parameters and operating conditions as set out in the study.
"I am excited to see that we could have new big markets for our technology, completely outside of the current applications in hydrogen, and that this global chemicals leader shows interest in our core technology", commented Christer Wikner, President & CEO, Metacon.
