DELOQ: Detect Locate and Quantify methane emissions (DELOQ)

This project aims to launch the spin-off company Deloq that enables the oil and gas industry to detect, locate and quantify fugitive methane emissions anytime, anywhere. The innovative methane sensing solution is based on our unique capabilities and IP position in silicon photonics and heterogeneous integration technologies. This project aims at de-risking the laser integration which is key to achieve the Deloq USP. In parallel, we will prepare a credible business plan for attracting VC-funding for a successful launch of Deloq as a UGent-imec spin-off by October 2022.
