Carbon Capture & DAC

Enable the development of better materials for capturing CO₂

Contact

As highlighted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, by 2050, it will be crucial to remove between 2 billion and 20 billion tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere annually to keep global warming below 1.5C. Carbon dioxide removal approaches, such as Direct Air Capture (DAC), play a huge role in achieving this gigaton scale. Our company is dedicated to contributing to this global effort through innovative solutions.

Avantium’s many years of expertise in adsorbents could help DAC developers address their challenges

DAC is one example of many more application in the field of Adsorption where Avantium R&D Solutions has experience and offers innovative tailor-made units applicable to a wide range of gas and liquid purification and separation challenges. Our custom-made units allow our customers to test 8 materials at the same time under the exact same conditions. This ensures that any differences they see in the results come from the differences in the material and allow them to select the best material for adsorbing CO₂.

What drives direct air capture R&D?

Current DAC technologies are too expensive and energy-intensive, making them challenging to deploy at a gigaton scale.

Your DAC Challenges

  • Efficient air contactor designs
  • Innovations in sorbent durability and cost
  • Energy-saving regeneration methods

Avantium’s custom R&D solutions can help DAC developers address challenges by developing higher capacity and more energy-efficient (ad)sorbents, finding (ad)sorbents that perform better under different conditions, determining optimal cyclic process conditions, and reducing time to market.

Capturing CO₂ from the air is an important way to be able to tackle climate change.

Avantium R&D Solutions has recently created a custom high-throughput testing platform to enable development of better materials for CO₂ adsorption. This system fits Avantium R&D Solutions’ experience in a wide range of gas and liquid purification and separation challenges.
