Tharisa invests £1.5m in JV to develop low-emission natural gas catalysers for shipping industry
Newly formed joint venture (JV) Methanox has secured a £1.5-million investment from platinum group metals (PGMs) and chrome concentrates producer Tharisa towards accelerating methane emissions reductions from natural-gas-powered ships. The Methanox JV is the brainchild of London’s Queen Mary University renewable energy senior lecturer Dr Patrick Cullen and chemical engineering programme director Dr Paul Balcombe, along with University College London inorganic chemistry Professor Andrew Beale and London-based climate technology laboratory Prosemino.
