Copernic Catalysts Announces Achievement of Ammonia Catalyst Milestone in Research Collaboration with Schrödinger
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., October 30, 2025--Copernic Catalysts, Inc. (Copernic) today announced that, in collaboration with Schrödinger, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDGR), the companies have surpassed the final technical milestone for their jointly-developed ammonia synthesis catalyst, branded NeptuneTM. The Neptune catalyst demonstrated an ammonia yield that was over two times higher than that of competing catalysts under real-world reactor environments, achieving the success criteria outlined in the collaboration a

However, ammonia production is energy-intensive and is currently responsible for nearly one percent of global CO₂ emissions. By achieving commercial yields at significantly milder conditions, Copernic’s Neptune catalyst has the potential to increase the capacity of industrial-scale ammonia manufacturing plants by up to 47 percent, translating to up to $110 million in additional annual profits on the plant level and up to a 23 percent reduction in energy consumption from the Haber-Bosch process.","length":638,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":""We believe we have developed the best-performing base-metal ammonia catalyst si...
