Summary
The IPCC and the EU recognize the importance of CO2 removal from the atmosphere to achieve their climate-neutrality objectives and limit global warming to 1.5°C. AirInMotion provides an efficient and sustainable technology that captures CO2 from air. It operates independently of location as stand-alone units or integrated in industrial processes utilising low-grade heat. It uses state-of-the-art adsorbents that are abundant, cheap and non-toxic and which are regenerated during continuous capture and release cycles. The technology is modular whereby larger capture plants are composed of multiple synchronised units that use central auxiliary components. Industrial integration facilitates CO2 capture at scale and results in high-quality CO2 that can be used as a feedstock for the production of valuable products in a circular carbon economy.
AirInMotion offers an opportunity to addresses industries whose indirect emissions in the supply chain cannot be removed at source, achieving significant emission reductions through remediation where this was not previously possible or has not been addressed by regulation or policy requirements. Its characteristics enable AirInMotion to be globally adoptable supporting Europe and the wider global societies to meet their carbon emission targets.
This project will focus on three objectives: 1) The demonstration of the effectiveness of the AirInMotion technology at scale through the construction of industrial prototypes reaching TRL-6. 2) The validation of the technology through the deployment of demonstrators in selected industries, including airports, the food industry and IT data centres. Further deployment will demonstrate a fully circular system using low-grade heat to provide research-grade CO2 which is in-situ used as refrigerant. 3) The development of commercialization and business strategies for a new spin-out company which will progress the economic, technological and societal impacts of the technology in the future.
