Strategic Objectives
• Master the thermodynamics of high-temperature solid-gas carbonation reactions.
• Integrate calcium looping seamlessly into existing cement and lime kiln infrastructures.
• Reduce energy penalties compared to conventional low-temperature solvent cycles.
• Explore the circular economy of spent sorbents in construction and manufacturing.
The Core Challenge
Traditional carbon capture methods fail at the extreme temperatures of cement and steel production, leaving a massive gap in our climate strategy.
