A warm welcome to our 11 new Catalisti members

Arrow Carbon is a carbon-to-value technology company turning captured CO₂ into high-value C2 chemicals and fuels. Using a proprietary low-energy catalytic process, they produce C2 chemicals as platform molecules for e-ethanol, e-MEG, and future PtL/e-SAF pathways. Their approach targets cost parity with fossil and coal-based chemistry while delivering deeply reduced carbon intensity. Arrow Carbon is currently advancing pilot projects and partnerships with industrial CO₂ emitters and hydrogen providers.

As a new Catalisti member, they look forward to collaborating with the Flemish chemical cluster to scale breakthrough e-fuels and green chemistry in Antwerp and beyond.

Prayon’s main activity is the production of inorganic chemicals starting from phosphate rock as the main raw material. Prayon Technologies is a subsidiary of Prayon that develops processes and sells custom-made production units to manufacture the early steps of phosphoric acid.

Prochemir is developing DataCentric, a data‑centric application for process engineers working in the conceptual design phase of process plants. In this phase, engineers work with data scattered across Excel, CAD drawings, and Word documents, which leads to time‑consuming manual synchronisation and inconsistencies. DataCentric provides a single source of truth in which topology and process data are central, ensuring automatic document consistency and enabling AI assistance. The solution targets engineering firms and project execution teams in the chemical and process industries. Through Catalisti, Prochemir is seeking contact with Flemish process companies interested in acting as pilot partners and contributing to the development.
