Similar to photochemistry, electrochemistry remains not frequently used as a synthetic tool in industry. However, it could be a low cost and green alternative to many batch reactions. The ability to very precisely control the reaction parameters makes that it has a lot of advantages over traditional chemistries. Given this increasing potential, Ecosynth has invested in its electrochemical capabilities.
