The Solution
QuantumSphere has created a way to increase surface area and catalytic activity of existing commercial catalysts. These catalysts are essential for facilitating and accelerating chemical reactions inside the converter of the chemical plant. QSI’s technology has been demonstrated commercially to improve chemical plant efficiency within the ammonia process converter by up to 15%, with no modifications to the plant itself. A 5% increase in catalytic activity can translate to millions in profits, over the life of the catalyst, for a typical-sized ammonia plant.

We’ve developed, patented and commercialized our proprietary process to create highly active nanocatalysts that can significantly improve process efficiencies and production output for the nearly 600 relevant industrial ammonia plants worldwide. Ammonia is our lead chemical focus with other high value chemicals in the pipeline.

The Opportunity We See
A key component to feeding the planet’s population is ammonia, arguably the world’s most critical chemical, which is manufactured through the Haber-Bosch process developed in the early 20th century. Ammonia-based fertilizer is the lifeblood of the agriculture industry, as it dramatically improves crop yields.

Ammonia represents a $100 billion industry. It is produced at nearly 600 chemical plants worldwide and is responsible for nearly 5% of annual global natural gas consumption. Nearly 200 million tons of ammonia are produced each year, with more than 80% used to make fertilizer products to support global food supply and population growth.

The Value Proposition
QSI’s nanocatalyst products can significantly increase plant production efficiency and reduce the consumption of natural gas, which is the main energy input required to run these industrial plants. The result is greater profits and a compelling value proposition worth potentially billions of dollars for the thousands of chemical plants in operation that produce nearly $1 trillion USD of ammonia, methanol and other basic chemicals, annually.
