The global carbon capture industry faces an inflection point. Despite rising emissions and urgent calls for climate action, traditional approaches anchored in massive centralized infrastructure have struggled to deliver. Burdened by exorbitant costs, prolonged timelines, and inflexible geographic requirements, these legacy solutions have left significant gaps in global decarbonization efforts. To meet the moment, a new model is essential — one defined by speed, adaptability, and economic feasibility.

The prevailing narrative in carbon capture has long centered on prohibitive costs. Industry estimates have placed capture costs at hundreds of dollars per metric ton, making widespread deployment economically challenging. This conventional wisdom is being challenged. Transforming Economics Through Innovation At Carbon Capture & Commercialization (CC&C), we’re developing technology that aims to bring capture costs…

Understanding the Current State of DACC, Its Potential, and Why CC&C’s Innovations Are Leading the Way  Note – This article originally appeared in Dec 2024 Petroleum Products And Solutions Vol 7, No 7 The Need for Innovative Solutions  Despite substantial investments in carbon capture, including $518 million in recent Department of Energy (DOE) funding, traditional…

How does CO2 affect concrete’s key properties? For construction professionals and concrete contractors, understanding these impacts is essential for making informed decisions on projects, timelines, and costs. This article originally appeared December 4, 2024 in For Construction Pros Concrete is at the heart of construction, and the push toward greener solutions has introduced new technologies…

The numbers tell a compelling story. Industries worldwide need billions of metric tons of CO₂ annually – from enhanced oil recovery to agriculture, cement production to steel manufacturing. This isn’t just demand; it’s a supply gap that represents significant untapped economic potential. The Market RealityEnhanced oil recovery alone faces a 17 billion metric ton annual…

The carbon capture industry has long held that effective capture under $100 per metric ton was years away. Those assumptions were based on traditional approaches – massive infrastructure projects requiring specific geology, extensive transportation networks, and complex chemical processes. But what if those assumptions were wrong? Rethinking Carbon Capture Economics By rethinking carbon capture from…

This article first appeared in Authority Magazine Nov 15 2024 As we face an unprecedented environmental crisis, the need for sustainable solutions has never been more urgent. This series seeks to spotlight the innovative minds and passionate advocates who are leading the charge in environmental conservation and sustainable practices. We aim to explore the most…

The Energy Industry’s Carbon Challenge Artificial intelligence has transformed everything from drilling operations to pipeline maintenance in the energy sector. Yet when it comes to carbon capture, most solutions still operate with minimal intelligence – static systems in a dynamic industry. For energy operators facing mounting regulatory pressures and increasing costs of environmental compliance, this…

This article originally appeared in For Construction Pros The global production of cement and—in turn—concrete is one of the world’s largest creators of greenhouse gases. The industry has placed a goal for both production and contractors alike, to be net-zero regarding carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 2050. Achieving this will require a ton of hard work a…

Imagine spending time and money to extract water from a nearly dry riverbed while ignoring a lake right next to you. That’s essentially what traditional carbon capture has been doing – building massive infrastructure in remote locations while ignoring CO₂ concentrations up to three times higher in our commercial and industrial centers. This mismatch between…
