A pioneering biomimetic Direct Air Capture technology
Must be removed from the air annually by 2050 to meet our climate targets.
Of all humans on earth combined.
In in the air making it very hard to capture.
Humanity needs all technologies to remove CO2 from the air (CDR) and avoids further pollution. Direct Air Capture (net negative CO2 footprint) focuses on atmospheric CO2 as input, with high concentrated CO2 gas as output, which can be stored long term (carbon credits) or used to produce products (e.g. synthetic fuels).
Ucaneo develops a pioneering biomimetic Direct Air Capture technology.
We believe that the most efficient way to restore a healthy atmosphere at these low CO2 concentrations, can be found at one of nature’s greatest miracles: the human lung.
Direct Air Capture is normally very energy intensive and expensive. Similar to a chemical sponge most DAC technologies bind CO2 through strong covalent atomic bonds to chemicals, which require heat to break it up again.
Similar to the human lung, we are not creating strong covalent bonds but just dissolve CO2 as bicarbonates (negatively charged ions in an electrolyte) leveraging (bio)catalysts and electrochemistry to remove the CO2 at room temperature highly energy efficiently.
The future is electrical and modular scalables
Ucaneo develops fully electric Direct Air Capture units produced in assembly lines. Modularity does not only ensure cost-, performance- and deployability control but also fast learning iterations. Running at room temperature with a capacity of 500-1000 tons of CO2 per unit, the units can be deployed and scaled in a plug and play fashion at different locations and downstream processes. This allows flexible deployment and tailored stacked capacities from small to large close to CO2 utilization, storage and energy sources.
Ucaneo’s technology enables cost efficient removal of CO2 from air. Accelerate this groundbreaking development by pre-purchasing carbon credits today.
Ucaneo aims to open the gates to a whole new sector of climate solutions. Collaborate with us today to develop game-changing CO2 utilization processes for tomorrow.
