Nano-photocatalytic Marine Antifouling/Anticorrosion Paint (Nano-MAP)
Nano-MAP was originally developed to protect metal hull surfaces and metal propellers from biofouling and corrosion. We also applied Nano-MAP to solve a serious fouling problem in the seawater inlet grill of seawater cooled chiller. Other potential applications include marine infrastructure such as fish farms, offshore oil rigs and subsea pipelines.
Anti-rust Lubricant Spray
SM-PRO Nano Lubricant Spray Series is a new rust prevention product launched by CAT Ltd., incorporating Nano-MAP nano-catalytic technology. Its ultra-fine molecules easily penetrate to the core, providing long-lasting lubrication effects.

Thermo-Electrochemical Cell (TEC)
The TEC cell is designed to recover heat rejected from air-conditioning systems. Besides, as the TEC is very compact in size, there are many other potential applications, e.g. low-temperature heat recovery from refrigeration systems, electric motors, internal combustion engines, hot industrial effluents, etc.
All-in-one Self-cleaning Tile
KC-TiO2 is an environment purification product that can be used effectively in numerous applications, from exterior walls to interior walls and floors. A building or building materials coated with KC-TiO2 on its surface has effects that are beneficial to our lives and the planet, such as air purification and self-cleaning effect.

Integrated Adsorption Cooling (i-AdC)
The i-AdC system can recover the waste heat from the conventional air-conditioning cycle to provide additional cooling effect through adsorption refrigeration. The average COP of the adsorption cooling process is around 0.55. Therefore, a significant amount of energy saving can be achieved.
Chilled-Water Evaporative Cooling (CEC)
CEC can be effectively applied to achieve thermal comfort in a semi-outdoor environment. Benefits include easy installation and high cost effectiveness.
