WOW! A Hungarian company won the so-called “innovation Oscar”
Change language:
The R&D Top 100 is an innovation and technology award of international prestige and this year one of its winners was the Hungarian start-up company, ThalesNano Energy Ltd. The company’s new hydrogen gas generating technology is already used in many countries worldwide.
The H-Genie is the first compact high-pressure hydrogen gas generator explicitly designed for chemists. It generates hydrogen up to 1450 psi at 1 NL/min safely from water and is designed to enable and improve hydrogenation while increasing lab safety by replacing hazardous Hydrogen cylinders – says rdworldonline.com.
The reactor was developed by the cooperation of ThalesNano Energy Ltd and the University of Szeged. In October, their product was chosen to be one of the most technologically significant products of the year in the world and received the R&D Top 100 (USA) award – szeretlekmagyarorszag.hu reported. H-Genie is currently the only lab reactor on the market in which Hydrogenis generated
with the help of a patented electrolytic technology
enabling to produce the hazardous gas even under a pressure of 100 bars. The equipment provides a unique opportunity to work with the gas safer in the labs than ever and offers multiple chemical uses, as well.
