INTERVIEW THP06: Trevor Best / Syzygy Plasmonics - Using Light For A Photocatalytic Chemical Reaction To Create Hydrogen And Revolutionize The Industrial Gas, Chemical, And Energy Industries.

Special Interview Series - THP06: Trevor Best / Syzygy Plasmonics - In today’s interview I want to highlight a company called Syzygy Plasmonics Inc. (siz-uh-jee). I was speaking on a hydrogen panel with their CEO Trevor Best and we started talking about their ability to use a process called photocatalysis to create hydrogen and I knew I had to get him on the podcast. 

To give you a brief overview… Syzygy (siz-uh-jee) develops chemical reactors that are both environmentally friendly and capable of disrupting the market. Invented at Rice University, their ‘Antenna-Reactor’ nanoparticle system turns traditional catalysts into high efficiency photocatalysts. It is capable of utilizing light to perform high volume chemical reactions at lower costs than are possible today. Syzygy will enter the market with a low-cost, low-emission Hydrogen production system. After a beachhead is established with Hydrogen, Syzygy will develop low-cost, low-emission production systems for other high value chemical reactions that create commodity chemicals such as Ethylene, Ammonia, and Methanol.

The technology is amazing. The leadership team is amazing. This company is on my short list of one’s to watch for the future.


Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy the podcast. Please feel free to email me at [email protected] with any questions. Also, if you wouldn't mind subscribing to my podcast using your preferred platform... I would greatly appreciate it.
