Alexander Krajete pitches Bio Power Storage Cleantech Startup Greenthitan
Alexander Krajete, Founder and CEO of Krajete GmbH (formerly known as Greenthitan), pitches his 3G bio fuel cleantech startup to investors at ECO11. The business idea of Krajete is biological power storage as natural gas. Alexander produces CH4 (methane gas) and H2O (water) out of CO2 (carbon dioxide) and 4H2 (hydrogen) using a biological transformation process called methanation (methanogenesis) performed by Archaea. Methanation is a key technology in the new Power to Gas market.
