An innovative catalytic brick that significantly reduces emissions from wood-fired heating systems has been recognized with an innovation award for outstanding utilization at the University of Szeged.
Developed in response to industrial demand, the catalytic brick lowers carbon monoxide and particulate emissions while improving heating efficiency. The technology has moved beyond the laboratory and is now used in industrial and residential applications through a successful spin-off company.
The project highlights the close connection between research, education, and real-world impact, with students actively involved in development and testing. The innovation contributes to cleaner air, lower fuel consumption, and more sustainable energy use.
