Congratulate the winners of the Pollutec Innovation Awards 2023 who benefit from a welcome spotlight, as well as free participation in the next Pollutec show and entry to the National Eco-Business Forum 2024 organized by Pexe.
PureNat offers the first textile that destroys air pollutants
We told you regarding it a few months ago: PureNat has developed the first textile on the market capable of filtering and destroying organic pollutants in the air.
100% durable and integrable into many types of closed installations, this device made from a patented biomimetic material won over the members of the Innovation Awards jury.
This promotion comes at the right time, with the marketing of the product planned for 2024, following an initial fundraising of more than €1M.
MTB is developing an efficient and innovative Li-ion battery recycling process
This recycling specialist offers a pretreatment process for li-ion batteries which uses an inerted crusher and continuous evaporation of the electrolyte.
Although it is still at the pilot stage, this process responds particularly well to current challenges concerning the recycling of electric vehicle batteries, because it displays a recovery rate of strategic metals of 95%, with a purity of 98%.
Grims Energies is developing a thermal storage solution using innovative materials
The Grims group and CEA Liten have co-developed a thermal storage solution which combines biosourced phase change materials with an exchanger composed of metal foams which promotes thermal transfers.
This solution called “ Grimsbox » is 4 to 5 times more compact than thermal storage in water and meets heat needs between 0°C and 110°C.
3 winners chosen from 12 finalists and 96 selected
There were 96 of them selected to compete this year at the Pollutec Innovation Awards. Among these companies, 12 finalists were selected by the selection committee made up of more than 22 networks, competitiveness poles and clusters.
