Transform Materials

Transform Materials was founded in 2014 by scientist and serial entrepreneur David Soane, Ph.D. Over six years of sustained R&D, Transform has developed a ground-breaking technology that uses microwave-generated plasma to energize the methane in natural gas to form hydrogen and valuable chemical intermediaries, as an attractive alternative to legacy processes in the chemical industry, which generate impurities and form greenhouse gases.

Complementing its contributions to chemical manufacturing, Transform’s technology produces hydrogen in an energy-efficient way, addressing an important need in the burgeoning fuel cell industry. Transform’s systems are compact and modular, thus readily scalable to match customer needs, whether for large plants or small industrial applications, integrating with existing systems and architecture to minimize adoption costs. Transform’s patented technology platform initiates a green revolution in the utilization of natural gas, converting this abundant resource into hydrogen and chemical precursors without requiring combustion or energy-intensive electrolysis.
