Recovering Carbon from Individual End Users (CARBIN-X)

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from buildings account for approximately 12% of the GHG output in the U.S. To accelerate GHG reductions beyond energy efficiency gains, GTI Energy is working with innovative companies developing equipment and supporting business models to recover carbon at individual building locations. With the financial support of Utilization Technology Development, NFP ("UTD"), we are evaluating and helping advance an innovative carbon capture from the building heating system exhaust for Canadian company CleanO2. Their CARBiN-X uses a chemical process to convert the CO₂ into a stable carbonate material which is then used to produce soaps and detergents for the consumer market.
