We must all contribute towards battling the climate crisis, its the only way to achieve net zero.
The Problem
CO₂ has low value and limited valorisation options creating a post capture bottleneck in the CCUS ecosystem.
Valorising CO₂ through ethylene based polymers will allow us to utilise, store and monetise CO₂, incentivising carbon capture.
The Solution
A modular CO₂ electrolyser coupled with carbon capture to produce ethylene using green energy.
The Delivery
Converting Captured CO₂
Partnering with companies to capture and convert Scope 1 emissions from industrial flue gas would save vast amounts of energy in the future and provide long term storage of CO₂.
Direct Air Capture (DAC)
CCUS of historical emissions from Scope 1, 2 and 3 and can accelerate our efforts towards Net Zero and provide long term storage of CO₂ and further reduce dependancies on fossil fuels.
Flue Gas Emissions
Electrochemical Conversion of CO2 to Ethylene.
CO₂ to Ethylene
Ethylene applications are vast however, the integration of CO2 sourced Ethylene in processes like the production of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) as well as Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) present a large scale decarbonisation and monetisation opportunity especially for the existing manufactures of these materials as well as for the hard to abate sectors. Basically, this process would not only consume CO₂ emissions on one hand but also avoid CO₂ emissions that are associated with the traditional production of these materials from fossil fuels.
Solving the climate crisis will be one of humanity's biggest achievements.
Some plastics are a great way to almost permanently store CO₂ as they do not degrade for many years. Nonetheless, reuse and recycling of these plastics remain a very crucial aspect. Therefore, the selected polymer would normally have long life applications. This would keep the applications away from one time use plastics and have a higher chance of being recycled sustainably.
This is a seemingly counterintuitive solution, here's why:
Wait. Isn't Plastic Bad for the Environment?
Irreplaceable polymers
Some polymers are unavoidable and are almost essential to the global supply chain. These polymers can be found in various industries to help build infrastructure projects, consumer goods, electronics, automobile components, machine parts and many other essential products. Polymers sourced from captured CO₂ could replace their fossil fuel sourced counterpart without disrupting its supply.
