The Path to a Sustainable Future
"The future cannot be predicted, but futures can be invented".
(Dennis Gabor, Nobel Laureate)
Global warming due to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions is one of humanity's most daunting challenges. Undesirable climate change can lead to extreme weather events, serious public health issues, food insecurity, and the extinction of animals and plants.
For a sustainable future, hundred gigatons of CO2 need to be removed from the atmosphere by the end of the century to avoid many detrimental impacts of climate change. Our technology provides a solution to realize this mission.
Innovation - Driven Solutions
At CO2L Tech, we challenge the status quo and push the boundaries of science. The technologies that would have been deemed impossible in the past are being matured rapidly. Through our extensive scientific research, we bring scientific discoveries into the real world, providing unprecedented outcomes that benefit multiple stakeholders and make a positive impact to the environment.
Circular Economy Promotion
Carbon is the central element of all organic compounds that are essential for our life. Almost everything surrounding us are made of organic compounds. However, a majority of them are synthesized from petrochemicals, of which their use is doing enormous harm to the environment.
CO2L Tech offers a technological platform to recycle and transform carbon from CO2 emissions into valuable organic compounds. They can be further converted into polymers, fuels, and chemical feedstocks. Our ultimate goal is to create a new market for products originated from carbon dioxide.
Better for Business, Better for the Planet
Over the last few years the number of companies that have set net zero commitments has soared. Most efforts to achieve net zero focus on reducing emissions (or 'decarbonizing'), either through physically incorporating capture and sequestration systems or paying for carbon credits. Our carbon transformation technology provides new means for businesses to align their net zero efforts with science-based targets through direct action within their own value chains. With this strategy, we commit to delivering transparency in carbon reduction and bringing economic benefits to both businesses and communities.
Technology
Our Electrochemical CO2 Reduction (ECR) systems transform CO2 into industrially useful chemicals.
The technology developed by CO2L Tech is based on the Electrochemical Reduction (ECR) of CO2. Our electrolytic systems work at high CO2 reduction rates, with high selectivity to products and long-term stability. More importantly, they can be incorporated into CO2 emission sources without the need to have major modifications to the infrastructure.
The input can either be pure CO2 gas or CO2 from the emission sources, which under an applied voltage is transformed into ethylene, syngas, or formic acid depending on which catalyst is used. With the rapid development of renewable technologies, it would be possible to run our systems with solar or wind energy in the future.
