Share

Altasciencesformulation, manufacturing, and analytical services facilities in Philadelphia, PA, are undergoing further expansion. Altasciences—an integrated CRO/CDMO offering pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies a proven, flexible approach to preclinical and clinical pharmacology studies—is building client‑dedicated facilities for Alladapt Immunotherapeutics, Inc. (“Alladapt”), a private, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing prescription therapeutics to address IgE-mediated food allergy, with a scheduled completion time in 2023.

Having developed the formulation and manufacturing processes to meet all of Alladapt’s Phase I and II clinical trial needs, Altasciences has been contracted to continue the process with the construction of a new 53,000-square-foot building that will meet Alladapt’s Phase III and commercial requirements. Altasciences will manage all aspects of this project, including warehousing, release management, manufacturing, quality assurance, and finished product release. The new building will have additional client dedicated capacity that can be used for Phase I through to commercial manufacturing services.

We are pleased to continue supporting Alladapt in their important goal of developing a single therapeutic to address a wide range of mono- and multi-food allergies, and we look forward to fulfilling their Phase III and commercial requirements,” stated Ben Reed, General Manager, CDMO Services at Altasciences.

The training Altasciences provides their CDMO workforce is second to none, as each team member is well-equipped to optimize and complete our manufacturing projects. We are proud to partner with Altasciences to continue advancing the clinical development of our potentially best in-class oral immunotherapy candidate, ADP101,” said Ashley Dombkowski, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer and co-founder at Alladapt.

Ohmium Breaks Barriers: Exceeds 2030 Industry Targets of 10 GW/ton to Achieve 18 GW/ton Iridium Utilization13.11.2025 10:05:00 EET | Press release

Ohmium International Inc., a leading provider of cutting-edge, high-efficiency, and modular Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzers, has surpassed the PEM electrolyzer industry's 2030 target of 10 GW per ton to attain an 18 GW per ton iridium utilization rate. Ohmium has made significant technological advancements which have resulted in reducing its iridium usage by 50% in its Lotus electrolyzer, Mark 2. This enhances the cost-competitiveness of green hydrogen production by reducing the overall cost of its PEM electrolyzers, which have been impacted by the cost of the precious metal, iridium. Dr. Chock Karuppaiah, Ohmium Chief Science and Technology Officer, said, "We've made significant strides in reducing iridium usage in our PEM electrolyzers, exceeding the 2030 industry target of 10 GW per ton. We've achieved a utilization rate of 18 GW per ton. This innovation is crucial, as iridium is one of the most expensive materials in electrolyzer manufacturing.” Dr. Markus Tacke, Ohmiu

Europe Must Embrace Long Duration Energy Storage to Manage Costs and Meet Climate Goals: New Report13.11.2025 10:01:00 EET | Press release

Policies to incentivize investment in longer duration energy storage can mitigate billions in grid costs, while helping the continent hit its 2050 climate goals and achieve energy independence, according to a new whitepaper from Hydrostor. The paper explores how, through policies aimed at increasing strategic investment in long duration energy storage (LDES), EU member states could cut grid expansion and curtailment costs by 2040, while avoiding spending billions on stranded natural gas assets1. Deploying these technologies across Europe can save €103 billion by 2040, according to recent research from Energy Storage Europe Association. Doing so in the UK could save €35 billion by 2050, according to LCP Delta analysis on behalf of the UK government.2 Hydrostor President, Jon Norman, said: “As global momentum grows behind long-duration energy storage, Europe risks being left behind. States must act now to deliver projects in time to fulfill their international commitments and ambitions.
