PlasmaLeap Technologies
PlasmaLeap is pioneering a cleaner future, by building accessible, sustainable technology for fuel and chemical production.
Our moonshot is to decarbonise the global primary chemicals industry.
Our world-leading non-thermal plasma reactors show exceptional energy efficiency and productivity rates. The modular, scalable deployment model allows customers to produce chemicals on-site, on-demand using simple inputs such as atmospheric air, water and renewable energy. Our primary output is Nitric Acid, a building block for Calcium Nitrate, Ammonium Nitrate and NPK products.
