The chemical industry is energy- and resource-intensive. Electrifying its processes can significantly contribute to making it more climate-friendly. In the research and innovation project “ETOS”, Evonik is working together with partners from industry and academia to operate chemical reactions with electricity instead of fossil energy sources in the future.

“It works—and it pays off”
Today, most chemical processes function with the help of a chemical catalyst. In the future, progress in the field of electrochemistry could increasingly make electricity alone sufficient to power a chemical reaction, says Professor Siegfried R. Waldvogel from the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion
