About Alkylyst…

A mysterious chemical engineer, a NASA scientist and a school teacher walk into a bar in the Bronx… This may sound like a nerdy joke, but it summarizes the beginning of this project from a conversation about sustainability to a process for real change!

Alkylyst was founded at Queens University of Charlotte, North Carolina in 2022.
