Kapture provides a modular, plug-and-play carbon capture retrofit system designed for existing diesel generators. This system captures up to 95% of CO₂ directly from exhaust streams while also reducing NOx, SOx, and particulate matter. The captured carbon is then converted into a valuable product, enabling a closed-loop decarbonization solution for heavy industry.

Problem
Diesel generators represent a significant source of industrial greenhouse gas emissions, particularly in sectors reliant on their power output. Current emission control strategies for these generators are often insufficient to meet evolving environmental regulations and corporate sustainability mandates.
Solution
Kapture is developing a direct exhaust capture system designed for integration with diesel generators. This technology aims to mitigate CO2 emissions at the source by selectively adsorbing carbon dioxide from the exhaust stream. The captured CO2 can then be sequestered or potentially utilized in other industrial processes. This approach provides a pathway for operators of diesel-powered equipment to reduce their carbon footprint and comply with environmental standards.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes operators of diesel generators in industries such as construction, mining, data centers, and emergency power systems, as well as companies seeking to reduce their Scope 1 emissions.
Features
- Direct exhaust gas capture module for diesel generator applications.
- Utilizes a proprietary adsorbent material for selective CO2 sequestration.
- Designed for integration into existing generator exhaust systems.
- Modular system architecture for scalability and ease of maintenance.
- Focus on high capture efficiency and low parasitic load on generator performance.
