Developing solutions for a future worth living
The element hydrogen (H2) has the potential to optimally fulfil society’s demand for a climate and environmentally friendly form of energy that meets demand. It is regarded as the energy carrier of the future: H2 is literally ‘the stuff dreams are made of’. With its innovative, unique sensor solutions, Archigas is helping to realise the vision of tapping into hydrogen on a large scale.
In collaboration with RheinMain University of Applied Sciences (HSRM), the company founded by physicists Illya Kaufman and Wladimir Barskyi has developed innovative H2 gas analysis systems that are characterised by their particularly fast reaction speed, accuracy, stability, moisture resistance and compact design. The characteristics of this new generation of measurement technology are thus consistently geared towards the specific requirements of the hydrogen industry with its high demands on the analysis of H2 concentration and purity.
Archigas specialises in microsensor technology (MEMS) and gas analysis. The company, based in Rüsselsheim near Frankfurt am Main, develops device solutions, particularly in the areas of thermal conductivity, pressure measurement and flow measurement. The declared aim is to offer customers cost-effective plug-and-play options that reliably fulfil highly complex analysis tasks. The company is supported by the state of Hesse as part of the LOEWE programme (‘Landesoffensive zur Entwicklung wissenschaftlicher und wirtschaftlicher Exzellenz’) for the development of measuring devices suitable for the exploration of natural hydrogen and helium deposits. Archigas is also carrying out developments as part of a project funded by the HLNUG (Hessian State Agency for Nature Conservation, Environment and Geology).
Archigas was on the podium of the ‘Hessen Champions’ in the ‘Innovation’ category in 2023 and received the highly coveted ‘Hermes Startup Award’ from the hands of Federal Research Minister Bettina Stark-Watzinger in the presence of Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz and EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen at the Hanover Fair in 2024.
