ItisScientific brings renewable energy, green chemistry, applied materials research and practical engineering together at an independent industrial research site in regional South Australia.
Working toward practical, locally developed technologies for Australia's energy future.
We are exploring technologies at the intersection of energy, chemistry, materials and engineering, with an emphasis on experimental evidence and industrial relevance.
Investigating ethanol production, feedstock constraints and alternative chemical pathways for renewable fuels. Current work includes fermentation planning and assessment of longer-term non-food feedstocks.
Experimental research in chemical processes and materials behaviour, supported by analytical techniques and laboratory instrumentation.
Investing in robotics, automation and instrumentation to support reproducible research and future industrial applications.
Integrating on-site solar generation and energy storage with a practical research and development environment.
Evaluating the chemical, energy and commercial feasibility of new routes to useful fuels, feedstocks and advanced materials.
Open to enquiries from researchers, engineers, technical suppliers and organisations interested in responsible applied research and pilot-scale feasibility.
Our operating solar and battery installation is a significant step toward powering practical chemical research with locally generated electricity.
The longer-term vision explores whether renewable electricity can support economically realistic fuel and materials pathways, while rigorously evaluating feedstock supply, energy efficiency and environmental performance.
Discuss renewable-energy collaboration ↗Exploring routes to fuels and materials. Individual processes remain subject to scientific verification, engineering assessment and economic feasibility.
