Why it Matters
The technology has the potential to make a significant impact in the fight against climate change. By capturing and immobilising CO2 directly at the source, their solution helps industries avoid carbon taxes and reduce emissions. Globally, 190 gigatonnes of CO2 must be removed from the atmosphere, with 40 gigatonnes still emitted annually.
Working on
Develops an innovative carbon capture technology to combat industrial CO2 emissions. The product, a CO2 Trap, captures carbon dioxide directly from factory flue gases or directly from the air (DAC), and convert it into a solid material that can replace cement in concrete production. The solution is designed to be simple, safe, and cost-effective, eliminating the need for costly transport or underground storage of CO2. By selling and installing CO2 Traps, CO2FIX aims to ensure rapid deployment of the technology, alongside offering geocatalysts and services to support efficient operations.
