Introduction & Problem Statement
“In October 2017, the UK government announced its new approach to carbon capture, usage and storage in the Clean Growth Strategy. The goal is to enable the UK to become a global technology leader for carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) and ensure that the government has the option of deploying CCUS at scale during the 2030s, subject to costs coming down sufficiently.”1
However, the carbon capture currently has several problems:
1) high complexity and low credibility
2) prohibitively high CAPEX and OPEX, and
3) difficulties in separating, purifying, transporting and storing the captured CO2.
The Solution
In light of the aforementioned challenges, we have developed a patent-pending dry powder that chemically adsorbs CO2 selectively when it experiences airflow, producing a raw material that is used in the manufacture of glass (Reco Glass). Using our CO2 adsorbent in air filters, we avail existing domestic and commercial infrastructures such as air purifiers, air conditioners and ventilation/HVAC systems to capture carbon. This way our air filters are revolutionising the carbon capture industry by offering a decentralised direct air capture (DAC) solution that is simple, effective, affordable and scalable.
