    About Pure Alchemi

    The problem we're solving:

    Net zero goals are at odds with the demand for reliable, affordable, accessible energy.

    Our solution:

    Our generators can use any fuel source--fossil fuels and biofuels--with no emissions. They operate using a chemical reaction instead of a traditional engine. This chemical reaction utilizes any carbon-based feedstock as a fuel and operates within a closed-loop system, meaning there are no emissions. This chemical process separates out and stores the carbon from the fuel in cannisters. This means that when using biofuels, the generators capture atmospheric carbon.

    Our differentiator:

    We capture carbon while generating energy. We don't need energy to capture carbon, we capture carbon with zero-emissions energy as a byproduct.

    Our renewable energy is affordable, distributed, and reliable. It's like having solar panels and being able to turn the sun on and off.

    Our biggest achievement:

    Two Innovate UK grants for projects totalling £1m. One completes development of a biofuel generator tested at the Materials Processing Institute (MPI) in Teesside. The other grant recovers rare earth elements from coal fly ash.

    Currently contracting for two $800m infrastructure projects–a waste to energy plant in Saudi Arabia and a power to grid project in South Africa, both of which include secondary desalinization operations utilizing our technology’s heat.
