Our Technology: Provides Advancing Permanent Carbon Capture & Sequestration

The ZAP-C³ comprises of multiple, stackable and interconnected containers, connected with an innovative ZAP-Microbubbler

The containers can be ‘plugged-in’ to various CO₂ emitting point sources or directly capture from the air. The greenhouse gases which would have been normally emitted to the environment, are instead redirected into our reactors provided highly concentrated CO₂ feedstock that we capture & sequester into carbonated materials. Using the ZAP-Microbubbler, we do even further sequestration.

Our process is energy efficient, cost-effective and gives NET carbon removal and can be adapted/engineered bespoke to any source of CO₂ including:

Anaerobic digestor plants
(biogenic flue gas)

Waste Incineration plants
(mixed flue gas)

Steel plants

And many more…

We have partnered with a large scale expert manufacturers who meticulously engineer our reactor system, that can be built bespoke to any facility.

The Science

Carbon Mineralization is a natural process by which CO₂ from the atmosphere reacts with minerals containing calcium or magnesium in solid or dissolved forms in soils, oceans and rocks converting to a carbonate compounds. This process permanently captures CO₂ and sequesters this for many years, effectively removing excess CO₂ from the atmosphere and thus mitigating climate change. However this takes thousands of years and cannot keep up with current emissions.

We significantly accelerate the process by using waste materials and water for our reactions, sustainably.

Our process uses waste alkaline material as feedstock, such as Basic Oxygen Furnace Slag (BOS), Fly Ash, Bottom Ash and Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA).

Our ZAP-C³ is designed to facilitate a perfect environment to ensure carbon mineralisation reactions occur between the flue gases and alkaline material, using recirculated water as a catalyst.

The output is a highly durable, carbonated material byproduct within which CO₂ remains sequestered greater than 10,000 years. Unlike many other process, ours ensures there is minimal risks of leakage back to the environment.
