A long journey in product innovation has created a diversified and growing portfolio of electrochemical technologies and water treatment, disinfection, and filtration technologies.
The innovation is in our DNA and began a century ago when Oronzio De Nora, our founder, patented his first electrolytic cell for Chlor-alkali production.
Our talented international research team counts on a peculiar mix of chemical, process, mechanical, and manufacturing expertise that allows us to develop new electrochemical systems starting from the initial conceptual phase up to the test of industrial-size prototypes. Scientific accuracy and precision, coupled with the Company's extensive know-how, drive our research teams to propose new and reliable solutions.
The research seeds come from customers, markets, and production needs & grow according to our Agile® / Stage&Gate™ hybrid process for product creation. The inventions are protected through efficient procedures of patenting or secrecy.
Existing and innovative technologies are oriented to the marketplace and customers' requirements using certified processes that respect the highest standards for Environment, Health, Safety, and Ethics to achieve full sustainability.
We are specialists in developing complete electrochemical solutions, including electrodes, cells, and systems.
DSA® electrodes featuring Mixed Metal Oxide (MMO) coatings represent the keystone of primary industrial processes like chlorine and caustic soda production, electronics, surface finishing & plating, hydrometallurgy, cathodic protection, electrochlorination, and disinfection. They recently extended their application into new rising markets like Energy Transition and CO2 reduction (water electrolysis, fuel cell power generators, CO2-to-chemicals) meanwhile retaining their central role.
The electrode is a complex product that can be structured in plates, meshes, or porous foils such as Gas-Diffusion Electrodes (GDE) and incorporates a plurality of catalytic formulations. They combine a set of domains and competencies: each determines the result. Every single step in the electrode preparation affects the result.
Modern cells and systems provide additional value incorporating and combining sophisticated design features with the properties of advanced electrodes to secure energy-efficient, reliable, durable, and easy operation to the end-user.
The observation during preparation, the sensitivity in results interpretation, the experience, and the competencies are essential for generating a successful product.
