Competence Centre for Catalysis

Welcome to the Competence Centre for Catalysis, KCK, which is a national interdisciplinary research center at Chalmers. The research is focused on catalysis; for synthesis and production of renewable energy carriers, for reduction of greenhouse gases and emissions, for fuel cells and electrofuels, and for energy-efficient chemical processes. Areas that are crucial for the transition to a sustainable society.

About KCK

The Competence Centre for Catalysis has since the start in 1995 suc­ces­sively become a world-renowned centre for research in het­ero­ge­neous catalysis with a unique inter­dis­ci­pli­nary approach. The centre has a successful track-record of responding to industrial and societal demands, and to develop knowledge and products within het­ero­ge­neous catalysis. The centre meets the urgent challenges of sustainable systems for trans­porta­tion, chemical and materials production, and energy conversion.

Research areas

Catalysis is an enabling technology that facilitates chemical trans­for­ma­tions. Chemical trans­for­ma­tions are used throughout our society and are key in the transition to sustainable systems for trans­porta­tion, chemical and materials production, and energy conversion. The Competence Centre for Catalysis collects and coordinates academic and industrial expertise to unlock the potential of catalytic techniques for the trans­for­ma­tive needs of society.
