Solidec

4200 San Jacinto Street, Houston, Texas, 77004, United States

Overview

Solidec's platform uses modular reactors to produce commodity chemicals on-site—including hydrogen peroxide, formic acid, acetic acid, and ethylene—without post-processing. The company is initially focused on hydrogen peroxide, a widely used chemical across semiconductor fabrication, mining, and wastewater treatment. Solidec positions its technology as a replacement for centralized, energy-intensive chemical manufacturing to slash emissions, supply-chain risk, and cost. The company has secured early commercial customers and plans to accelerate go-to-market through pilot deployments and scaling to meet customer-specific needs. Solidec raised an oversubscribed $2+ million pre-seed round to fund these efforts. The company spun out of Professor Haotian Wang's lab at Rice University in 2024 and is based in Houston, Texas; it is an Activate Fellowship recipient, a Chevron Catalyst Program graduate, and a member of Greentown Labs Houston.
