[Las Vegas (USA) = AVING News] CorporationQuantumCat Co., Ltd. (CEO Kang Shin-hyeon) will be holding Eureka, the startup zone of ‘CES 2023’, held in Las Vegas, USA for a total of 1 days from January 5 (Thursday) to January 8 (Sunday, local time), 4. Participated in Park K-STARTUP Integrated Hall.
Quantum Cat is a domestic company leading the commercialization of ‘gold nanocatalyst’, a new concept catalyst that exhibits very high catalytic activity at room temperature. This is a technological material that can effectively remove harmful gases and greenhouse gases such as carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds, and methane without additional energy consumption or devices, and is attracting attention as a key material for carbon neutrality in the future.
Platinum group metal catalysts currently used in the global industry require a high temperature environment of over 200°C to be activated, and the use of more fossil fuels is inevitable to establish such an environment. On the other hand, Quantum Cat’s gold nanocatalyst exhibits static catalytic performance even at room temperature, effectively reducing the use of fossil fuels to increase temperature. In addition, it is also emphasized that based on these characteristics, the additional effect of preventing serious accidents and respiratory diseases caused by harmful gases can be enjoyed.

By applying a differentiated new material-based catalyst, Quantum Cat has completed a filter prototype and is known to be conducting continuous PoC with large domestic and foreign companies engaged in the air purifier business. In addition, the company explains that it has proven its effectiveness in actual use environments through various tests, and that it expects to lead to actual sales results by exhibiting it at this exhibition.
Quantum Cat officials said, “With low-carbon green growth and carbon neutral policies being widely applied around the world, the main agenda to ultimately achieve that goal is reducing fossil fuel use, using alternative energy, improving energy efficiency processes, and CCUS, all of which are catalysts. “This is an area where technology is essential,” he explained. “We expect that the new concept catalyst technology completed with our own technology will become a core technology that supports humanity’s sustainability through carbon neutrality.”
Furthermore, it was revealed that the company is investing its capabilities in basic research for full-scale commercialization. An official said, “Until now, the biggest challenge in using metal nanoparticles as catalysts was providing stability to the nanoparticles.” He added, “Our company was able to overcome this with ‘nanocage’ technology, and used this to “We are conducting basic research to commercialize nanocatalysts.”
Meanwhile, ‘CES’, the world’s largest IT exhibition, is an exhibition where you can understand the trends of the global home appliance industry at a glance. Hosted by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), it is held every January in Las Vegas, USA. AVING News, which has covered CES for 1 consecutive years, has reported CES news around the world every year since 17, and has been selected as the ‘BEST OF CES’, which selects the best innovative products and technologies, and the ‘BEST OF’, which selects domestic innovative companies. ‘MADE IN KOREA’ was held. In addition, CES on-site issues were vividly conveyed through ‘AVING LIVE’.
The K-STARTUP Integrated Pavilion is jointly participated by the Korea Start-up Agency, Seoul Business Agency, and Seoul Digital Foundation, and 51 domestic innovative companies participated to enter the U.S. market and discover global partners. In addition, CES 2023 college student supporters selected from each university (Kyunghee University, Kookmin University, Sogang University, and Chung-Ang University) were matched considering majors and industrial fields of participating companies.
