“Anaeco grew from a simple scientific idea: The atmosphere already has effective chemistry for breaking down pollutants, so why not harness and accelerate it where harmful gases are emitted. That fundamental science has become a practical technology. This investment gives us the opportunity to take that science to a larger scale.”

“Turning university research into a company capable of real-world impact requires much more than a good scientific idea. It requires validation, persistence, strong partnerships and investment that can take the technology into the market. Anaeco’s progress illustrates that journey, and this investment represents an important next step in bringing a University of Copenhagen innovation to wider application.”
