Commenting on the partnership, Stefan Heuser, Senior Vice President & General Manager at Clariant Catalysts said, “We are honoured to support Ineratec in their pioneering work in sustainable fuel production. Their state-of-the-art, container-sized gas-to-liquid technology has great potential for the decentralized fuel market, and we are excited to contribute with our tailor-made syngas catalyst innovations.” 
 
Tim Boeltken, Co-founder & Managing Director, Ineratec said, “We are very proud to announce Clariant among our catalyst partners, and would like to thank them for joining us in creating a more sustainable future.”
 
Ineratec, a spin-off of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), is specialized in modular chemical reactor technologies for producing sustainable fuels and chemicals. The striking feature of this company’s solution is that the entire chemical process is realized in transportable container units. Their gas-to-liquids process combines hydrogen generated from renewable power, with greenhouse gases (such as CO2), to form CO2-neutral synthetic hydrocarbons and fuels.
