The PIONEER consortium includes experts in plasma physics and catalysis, but also in spectroscopy, chemical engineering, etc… The complementarity of the 15 academic research groups involved in 10 countries is essential for the scientific success of the project as well as for the supervision of the ESRs. The consortium also includes 5 industrial partners who bring their technological know-how as well as their vision on the most relevant innovations to solve the environmental challenges of CO2 emissions.
