Svante has committed to lending nature a hand by preventing CO₂ generated by the world’s key industries from entering the atmosphere. And it’s happening in Saskatchewan, at a pilot test plant with Husky Energy.
For the first time at an industrial scale, Svante’s technology is capturing 10,000 tonnes of CO₂ per year. Our approach is tailored by separating the CO₂ from the nitrogen contained in the flue gas generated by industries such as cement, steel, and oil/gas.
Gas typically vented through a smokestack is now diverted through the Svante capture system – where carbon dioxide is trapped in our proprietary filters. Our engineered nano-materials create a powerful adsorbent which gives a sugar cubed-sized the same surface area of a football field.
With a capital cost at less than half of the other existing technologies, Svante makes industrial-scale carbon capture technology a reality. At a single facility, this technology can do the work of 10 million trees. Svante offers companies in emissions-intensive industries a commercially viable solutions to capture large scale CO₂ from existing infrastructure – A powerful incentive for industry to join mother nature as an ally in the fight against climate change.
This technology is very interesting !
Is there any information on how well this works in lower concentrations? 1%? 2%? and such input CO2 streams.
