Project description
A greener way to combat pollutants
A deep tech startup in Sweden is tackling the problem of pollution. Drawing upon years of research in materials chemistry, it has developed an innovative biobased adsorbent material with an exceptional capacity to capture harmful pollutants. With a vision to replace the prevalent use of activated carbon, the company strives to significantly reduce environmental impact and material usage in pollutant removal applications. To achieve this goal, the EU-funded Adsorbi project will conduct a market analysis to identify the most promising application areas. A technical feasibility study will also be carried out to evaluate the material’s performance. Also, an intellectual property (IP) strategy evaluation will ensure the protection of their innovation.
Objective
Adsorbi is a deep tech startup company from Gothenburg Sweden and was founded after several years of research within materials chemistry. Adsorbi's innovation is a biobased adsorbent material, which captures harmful pollutants with high capacity. The aim is to replace activated carbon in applications for pollutant removal to lower the high environmental impact and material use of today. The goal of the project is to identify which of the many potential application areas to target, specifically, what should be the first products and who is the ideal first customer of Adsorbi. The project is divided into four objectives: perform a market analysis, perform a technical feasibility study, perform an IP strategy evaluation, and develop a business case around shortlisted attractive application areas.
