Company Interests:
ALVATEC is a high-tech metallurgical company specializing in the processing of alkali and alkali earth metals, vacuum- and hydrogen technology. ALVATEC has developed high performing getters for the vacuum insulation of automotive LH2 tanks and liquid hydrogen tubes and an innovative alkali hydrogen generator for PEM fuel cells.

News at HANNOVER MESSE 2007:
ALVATEC showed its first prototypes of the alkali hydrogen generator for PEM fuel cells. The generation of hydrogen is based on a chemical reaction of water with newly developed alloys, containing at least one alkali metal. The alloy is completely dissolved in water without any catalyst and offers very high energy densities. ALVATEC has started cooperation with fuel cell companies and scientific institutions to develop fuel cell platforms and portable chargers for electronic devices. Jointly developed portable charger prototypes were also presented at the Hannover Messe.
