A research unit of 240 people working in the field of catalysis to produce energy; environmental remediation; reusing recyclable resources; and atmospheric chemistry. IRCELYON has all the analytical and physico-chemical characterisation tools of catalysts to push forward the frontier of knowledge in our field, while taking an integrated catalyst-reactor-reaction approach. Many partnerships with industry and universities
