Modular electrochemical architecture
Flexible integration with capture and clean energy infrastructure
Converting carbon emissions into low-carbon fuels and chemicals
Designed for scale-up from pilot to industrial deployment
Pilot Demonstration & Scale-up Pathway
C-UP PtX has progressed beyond laboratory validation toward real-world industrial demonstration. An integrated capture-to-conversion prototype has been evaluated at ViPlus Dairy, a Victorian milk powder manufacturing facility, using an on-site CO₂ stream to demonstrate the conversion of captured carbon into reusable fuel-related products within a practical industrial operating environment.
This pilot activity provides an important bridge between laboratory development and commercial deployment, supporting validation of system integration, operational performance and downstream fuel-production pathways under real site conditions. Building on this progress, C-UP PtX is advancing engineering and scale-up activities toward larger modular deployment systems operating at tens-to-hundreds of kilowatt scale and beyond.
