Carbon Capture & Recycle™

A Practical Solution for Global CO₂ Mitigation

GoNano Technologies, Inc’s Carbon Capture & Recycle selectively converts CO₂ into formic acid, formaldehyde, and/or methanol through a photocatalytic process. These resulting chemicals are important raw materials for a number of industries including the manufacture of plastics and rubber.

Several approaches to stabilize and reduce atmospheric CO₂ concentrations have been tested. While underground carbon dioxide storage has been hailed as the most promising approach for sequestering CO₂ safely away from the atmosphere, the technology remains unproven, costly, and potentially hazardous.

GoNano Technologies offers an alternative to permanent underground storage by using CO₂ as a commodity that can be converted – or more specifically “recycled” – into useful and valuable feedstock chemicals. This approach reduces or eliminates the amount of CO₂ entering the atmosphere, and creates a revenue stream to offset the cost of implementation.

Technological Features

GoNano technologies’ Carbon Capture & Recycle technology offers a number of distinct advantages for CO₂ recycling

• Clean and safe – Eliminates underground storage and avoids long term health risks and costs
• Selectable final products – Output of Formic Acid, Formaldehyde, and Methanol
• Efficient system - Eliminates compression of CO₂ to liquid as required by CCS
• Scalable platform - Continuous flow method capable of processing industrial volumes
• Onsite integration - No pipelines to transport CO₂ to geologically suitable storage
