RNS from 08 October 2007 includes the following:
Oxford Catalysts, the leading catalyst innovator for clean fuels, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with a world-leading fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) multinational to explore the use of Oxford Catalysts' proprietary technology for Instant Steam.
Roy Lipski, Chief Executive of Oxford Catalysts said:
We are very excited about our Trigger Steam technology and the potential represented by the process we've embarked upon with this leading global consumer goods giant.
The possible uses of our technology are vast. We're confident that we have found a partner that is
ideally positioned to help us capitalise on its promise in a number of mass-market applications.
The Times Rumour of the Day had this to say today:
There is talk that more cleaning product suppliers and manufacturers are taking an interest in the instant steam products being developed by Oxford Catalysts. The Oxford University spin-off two weeks ago confirmed this pages rumour that it had signed an outline deal with a consumer giant to develop a spray can cleaner.

I bought shares in this yesterday and its already showing a profit! Today the sp moved up 5% to 160-166p. I believe there's good potential here.

Very solid results.
Outlook
2012 was truly a milestone year for Oxford Catalysts, with the Group's offering emerging as the only smaller scale synthetic fuels technology to have been publically announced as selected for commercial projects. As we move into 2013, the drivers for our technology all remain strong: availability of cheap gas, particularly North American shale gas; concerns over gas flaring and energy security; and the desire for cleaner fuels. The Company has started 2013 well financed following a highly successful fundraising; with its technology well-proven and with the right partnerships and supply chain in place, as well as a strong, capable team, Oxford Catalysts is set for significant commercial progress.

Global Oil Demand Growth – The End Is Nigh — The Substitution of
Natural Gas for Oil Combined With Increasing Fuel Economy Means
Oil Demand Is Approaching a Tipping Point
Europe, Global
The combination of an accelerating push to substitute natural gas for oil and
ongoing improvements in fuel economy is enough to mean that oil demand
growth may be topping out much sooner than the market expects. The shift from
oil to gas is already underway in the US, where the shale gas revolution is giving
a huge economic incentive to make the switch. As the US shift gains pace,
politics, greater natural gas availability and environmental concerns are
facilitating the trend globally.

Oxford Catalysts plans waste-fed factory
By Peter Marsh
A new manufacturing era, in which small plants produce oil and plastics from waste materials, is about to dawn in the UK, according to Oxford Catalysts, the chemicals technology group.
In announcing the company’s 2012 results, chief executive Roy Lipski said he hoped to finalise at least one contract for the building of a $250m “commercial-sized” plant – capable of making up to 120,000 tonnes of oil or plastics a year from waste streams – in the next nine months.
Oxford Catalysts is among the leaders in a clutch of businesses trying to find a way to convert relatively low-value carbon-containing materials into higher-value diesel, jet fuel or industrial chemicals.
Its technology works by using such substances as rotting vegetables and household waste as source materials, or flare gas from oilfields that would normally be wasted.
These ideas have already excited interest both in the energy industry, and in chemicals manufacturing.
In the second of these areas, Mr Lipski said his company’s technology could assist in parts of the world that are distant from conventional chemical feedstocks.
“It’s possible to envisage ways of using our technology in small distributed plants that, by forming a source of materials for other factories fairly close by, could help to shorten manufacturing supply chains,” said Mr Lipski.
One of the companies evaluating such ideas is Calumet, a US maker of speciality chemicals that is trying out some of Oxford Catalysts’ technology.
Calumet is among a number of possible candidates for announcing the construction of a full-scale production venture by the end of 2013.
Formed in 2006, Oxford Catalysts raised £30m this year in investments to further its technology, and has so far failed to make a profit – with Mr Lipski refusing to disclose when this might happen.
He was speaking after the company announced that its losses, adjusted for depreciated, amortisation and related payments, rose 2 per cent in the year to December 31 2012 to £7.9m, after £7.7m the year before.
However, the company made progress in pushing up revenues 61 per cent to £7.6m in 2012, from £4.7m in the previous 12 months. The loss per share was flat at 11.5p (11.4p).
Oxford Catalysts will soon take on the name of Velocys, a subsidiary business. Between them Oxford Catalysts and Velocys – which has its headquarters in the US and was bought in 2008 – have spent about $300m on developing technical ideas over 15 years.

$8 million Ventech Reactor Order
Oxford Catalysts Group (OCG.L), the technology innovator for smaller scale Gas-to-Liquids (GTL), is pleased to announce that Ventech Engineers International LLC (Ventech) has placed an order with the Group for Fischer-Tropsch (FT) reactors worth $8 million.
This order, placed in accordance with the agreements between the parties announced on 19 November 2012, is expected to generate revenues to the Group of $8 million over the period of their fabrication, estimated at 18 months, with a minimum payment of $3.6 million guaranteed in 2013. The reactors will have sufficient capacity for a plant of approximately 1,400 bpd. At the time when they are transferred from Ventech to a plant owner, the Group expects to receive additional license and catalyst revenues.
Ventech, headquartered near Houston, Texas, is a global leader in the design and construction of modular refineries, and an early pioneer of modular GTL plants. Ventech's manufacturing complex specialises in completely assembled and tested modules that are easily transported by truck, rail, and barge. Through its affiliate, Ventech Project Investments LP, it has $200 million available to make equity investments in energy projects, including GTL plants.
In November 2012, Oxford Catalysts and Ventech announced that they had entered into a series of agreements whereby the Group became Ventech's preferred supplier of FT technology in North America, and Ventech was granted non-exclusive assured access to design, sell and deliver GTL plants incorporating the Group's FT product to customers in North America. In collaboration with the Group, Ventech has developed the design for a fully integrated, shop fabricated, modular GTL plant.
Roy Lipski, CEO of Oxford Catalysts Group, said:
"We are delighted to receive this order from Ventech and to further cement our partnership with them. It represents another important milestone in the commercialisation of our technology and will allow us to consolidate the readiness of our supply chain for large volume orders."
Kevin Stanley, CEO of Ventech Engineers International, said:
"We are pleased to be moving our relationship with Oxford Catalysts to the next stage. We continue to see many opportunities for modular GTL and are looking forward to building the first plant of its kind in North America."
