About
Founded in 2017, Electroactive is a private headquartered in Knoxville, United States specializing in Hydrogen, Biogas.
Electro-Active Technologies was spun out of Oak Ridge National Laboratory based on DOE-EERE funded research in bioelectrochemical systems. Founded in August 2017 by Dr. Alex Lewis and Dr. Abhijeet Borole, the company converts organic waste streams into hydrogen-based fuels and nutrient-rich soil additives through microbial electrolysis. The modular system processes food waste to produce hydrogen and hythane fuels while extracting nitrogen, phosphorus, and micronutrients for fertilizer applications. The technology addresses food waste (40% globally wasted), landfill methane emissions (18% of U.S. total), and the need for low-carbon fuels and regenerative fertilizers. Products include hydrogen-based fuels, green ammonia/phosphate, and organic soil additives containing 85% organics and slow-release nutrients activated by soil biology.
