Strategic Objectives
• Master the science of mineral carbonation using anthropogenic waste streams.
• Transform steel slag and fly ash from liabilities into high-value carbon sinks.
• Implement circular economy principles to reduce industrial environmental footprints.
• Navigate the technical and economic pathways for scalable carbon capture and storage.
The Core Challenge
Heavy industries produce billions of tons of alkaline waste that pollute landscapes while carbon emissions continue to rise unchecked.
