At OXCCU, we are leading the way in scientific progress, shaping the future of sustainable energy, fuel production, and the creation of chemicals and plastics. Our approach involves combining CO2 from the air with H2 from water and renewable electricity to produce environmentally friendly fuels, chemicals, and biodegradable plastics. Carbon is a highly valuable element, particularly when utilized in hydrocarbons. Our objective is to allow future generations to continue using hydrocarbon fuels without negatively impacting the climate. While renewable energy is becoming more prevalent, fossil fuels still account for a significant portion (82%) of the world's primary energy demand of 604 EJ in 2022. In order to minimize greenhouse gas emissions, we must transition to zero-emission sources within a 30-year timeframe. While some sectors, such as power, are already progressing in this direction, not all industries can easily decarbonize using renewable electricity alone. Specifically, long-distance aviation fuels and petrochemicals present challenges due to their need for high energy density and the carbon molecules required to produce a variety of everyday products. Here is where OXCCU provides a unique solution. Our cost-effective catalysts demonstrate exceptional efficiency and selectivity, converting CO2 into valuable hydrocarbons through an innovative one-step process. CO2 can be transformed into sustainable e-fuels, chemicals, and biodegradable plastics. This represents the future of truly circular technological advancement, where individuals can travel by air, use household chemicals, and purchase disposable and biodegradable plastic products without concerns about their contribution to climate change or waste disposal. The company was established in 2021 as a spinoff from the University of Oxford by co-founders Andrew Symes and Jane Jin, who were employed at IP Group and OUI respectively. The scientific foundations of the company are supported by breakthrough research published by the academic founders, Professor Peter Edwards, Dr Tiancun Xiao, and Dr Benzhen Yao, in highly reputable scientific journals.
