  • FEBRUARY 1, 2025: First Anniversary

    On the 1st of February, we marked 1 year since we first met as a consortium to kick off the CirculH2 project. One year more of working towards a sustainable future with hydrogenases applied in industry. 🧪 I would also like to take this opportunity to present a bit more about us, CirculH2 and its…

  • APRIL 28, 2025: Publication Alert! Switching the Cofactor

    Can we use NADH instead of NADPH to drive enzymatic carboxylic acid reduction for the synthesis of industrially relevant compounds? Yes, we can! Have a look at this work by our partner Margit Winkler from the TU Graz, recently published in the special collection of ChemCatChem “Women of Catalysis 2024”. 👩‍🔬 This is a great example of…

  • OCTOBER 29, 2024: Publication Alert! Reviews on Hydrogenases

    Have a look at this review exploring methanogenesis in wastewater treatment that highlights the role of hydrogenases in methane production by our partner University of Zagreb Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Technology! Hydrogen activation by hydrogenases in methanogenesis enables the efficient biogas production and supports circular economy by turning organic waste into renewable energy! They’ve also…

  • OCTOBER 21-23, 2024: [FeFe]-H2ase Workshop at the TUM

    We recently wrapped up the Hydrogenase Workshop at the Technical University of Munich Professorship of Electrobiotechnology organized by Nicolas Plumere and Kelly Lim-Trinh. The sessions covered both theory and lab work on the expression and handling of [FeFe]-hydrogenases, led by Jan Jaenecke, Martin Winkler, and Kasia. Discussions centered around the potential applications of hydrogenases in future industrial processes, particularly in sustainable energy…

  • SEPTEMBER 25, 2024: CirculH2 in a podcast

    Now that summer is behind us and everyone is back in full swing, I wanted to share some great news from CirculH2! 🌿 CirculH2 had the privilege of being featured in a podcast by acib GmbH, where our project manager, Nicolas Plumere, discussed the potential of hydrogenases in hydrogen production. We explored the goals of this innovative…
