Meet The Team

Mr. Ky-young Shin is the current president of Arstroma and the developer of Arstroma’s technologies. He founded Enkay International Ltd in 2007 to develop Nano Catalyst and holds numerous patents related to it.

He studied the application of nano-catalyst patented technology to carbon dioxide capture, and finally obtained a patent for carbon dioxide capture catalyst and technology in 2013. By manufacturing the Demo Plant, he succeeded in manufacturing the separation membrane and commercializing the CO2 capturing device.

In 2015, we established Arstroma Ltd to carry out carbon dioxide capture technology, and in cooperation with KEPCO installed an Arstroma CO2 capture facility directly in the flue gas of the Dangjin Coal-fired Power Plant. He succeeded in demonstrating the world's first separation membrane collection device.

He is currently preparing to install CO2 capture devices in various countries around the world and is conducting research to increase the efficiency of carbon capture.

​

Mr. Jin-seok Jang is the CEO of Arstroma, in charge of the government affairs and overseas business promotion. He is also serving as a vice chairman of the African Economic Development Cooperation Committee. 

He obtained a civil engineering degree from the university and he got a job at Korea Gas Corporation (KOGAS) in 1984, where he became an expert in upstream and downstream businesses of natural gas and gas-related projects throughout his life.

At KOGAS, he was responsible for the construction of LNG terminals and pipelines for gas supply throughout Korea, giving Korea an opportunity to make significant progress in the natural gas sector. He participated in the overall overseas business of KOGAS in Central America, Central Asia, and Africa.

Research on hydrogen production and carbon reduction, which he had been leading during his time as vice president of KOGAS, became essential to human needs and became a blue ocean business field. His research and efforts will be of great help to all countries in the world today.

Mr. Kwansik Kim is currently responsible for the development and improvement of Arstroma products. He is a mechanical and electrical engineer with over 30 years of experience, and along with Mr. Ky-young Shin, inventor of Arstroma's CO2 capture system.

​

He invents and holds patents for several devices and machines in government-controlled businesses. He is known as the top expert in the field of Korean machinery. His participation and support has enabled Arstroma to develop an efficient and safe system.

​

He oversaw the demonstration of Arstroma's world's first membrane capture device at the Dangjin Thermal Power Plant by 2020. He is devoted to research that increases the efficiency of carbon capture and believes that his passion will allow the planet to live in cleaner air.

Keith Lee is a Korean-American born in Korea and educated in the United States. After graduating from NYU, he participated in various projects connecting Korea and the United States.

​

He has also worked in the field of investment advisory and project management for infrastructure projects in Korea and Indonesia.

He is currently involved in renewable energy projects that utilize wind power and projects related to climate change. When he was first introduced to Arstroma's technology, he said he felt obligated to do good to the planet and its descendants.

​

Arstroma's carbon reduction is a business that is good for humanity, but it is also a lucrative business. He is responsible for promoting Arstroma's technology to the world and creating networks of investment and research with foreign partners.

His relationship with Ky-Young Shin began when he signed a technical advisory contract with Enkay International in 2009 while he was working at the Korea Standards Institute, and he published a thesis as a co-author on Shin Ki-Young's research. He currently serves as Astroma's Technical Advisor and Research Director.

He majored in Metallurgical Engineering at Seoul National University, and received his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from Northwestern University, USA. He has served as a senior researcher at the Korea Institute of Standards and Science, as a senior researcher, as the head of the National Reference Standards Center, and as a chair professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the State University of New York (Korea Branch).

His research field has various research experiences in the field of new material development and property evaluation. In the field of nano powders, he also researched large-scale production of aluminum oxide nano powders using high-capacity high-frequency oscillators.

She and Mr. Shin Ky-young have been together since the establishment of Enkay International Ltd in 2007. In 2009, she joined the nano research project as a representative of the national research project, developing a nano catalyst for artificial photosynthesis, and holds a patent as a co-developer of nano catalysts. She taught students at Daegu University until 2004, and since 2005 she has served as CEO of V&V. She is a founding member of Arstroma since its founding in 2015 and is currently participating in management.

Mr. Sung-hun Hur recognized that Arstroma technology is a useful technology for net-zero carbon policy while he was in the plant order business, and he wanted to actively participate in the Arstroma business, so he joined in 2015.

He is responsible for the domestic business operations and is involved in the construction of Arstroma's carbon capture and liquefaction plants.
