Problem
Many industries struggle to meet net-zero targets due to the high costs and technical challenges associated with capturing and utilizing carbon dioxide emissions. Existing carbon capture methods often lack profitability and resource efficiency, hindering widespread adoption. Additionally, the accumulation of industrial waste, such as phosphogypsum, poses significant environmental risks.
Solution
Airovation Technologies offers a carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) solution that transforms carbon dioxide emissions and industrial waste into valuable resources. Their patented mineralization technology converts CO2 and phosphogypsum into high-purity carbonates, bicarbonates, and other minerals, which can be sold as raw materials for industries like fertilizer, concrete, paper, and plastics. By integrating carbon capture with resource recovery, Airovation enables a circular economy that reduces emissions, minimizes waste, and generates revenue for industrial emitters. The company's approach supports the production of low-carbon hydrogen and the creation of low-carbon industrial ecosystems.
Target Audience
Airovation's primary customers are manufacturers in hard-to-abate industries, such as fertilizer, concrete, steel, and chemical production, seeking to reduce their carbon footprint and comply with environmental regulations.
