THE ESSENTIALS
There are many suggestions on how to lower carbon footprint but most of them are variations of greenwashing suggestions.
For those genuinely committed to sustainability : What we are offering, is a direct process to capture carbon dioxide (CO2), with high surface area nano-catalysts - onsite. There is no need to send CO2 under the ground, purchase carbon credits or acidify concrete by carbonation, which compromises its durability.
Depending on your industry, simply expose our nanocatalyst to the exhaust emissions, for direct capture. Our nanocatalyst capture the CO2 with oxygen (O2) as the byproduct.
Our product is a system originally designed as a space technology to recycle air in a closed environment, now repurposed cost-effectively for terrestrial use in industries seeking a more sustainable approach in their operations.
To verify the efficacy of the product beyond gas chromatography and sensors, companies can also have environmentalists measure the air quality around your plant, before and after they start using our nanocatalyst, for CO2 capture.
Our CO2 capture nanocatalyst can be used directly in dry form to capture CO2 from within the flue or as a wet slurry.
The final product after CO2 capture, can be reused. Instead of buying carbon credits, our nanocatalyst will help you earn them and capaitalise where necessary - consult with us for details, depending on the overall composition of your emissions.
One of the key aspects to increasing the energy yield from a fuel and lowering toxic emissions, lies in the efficient removal of sulphur in conjunction with capturing CO2 emmissions, before they are released into the atmosphere.
The reason being, that the more sulphur crude oil contains, the less energy it produces per litre, barrel or gallon. It goes without saying, that sulphur contamination comes at a consequence of higher CO2 emissions, when more fuel is required perform designated functions.
The key to effectively lowering emissions and operating economically, is to utilise high surface area nanocatalysts, that efficiently support the upgrade the energy density of fuels, so that they deliver more energy, at lower volumetric quantities.
IMPORTANCE OF EFFECTIVE NANO-CATALYTIC CO2 SORPTION
CONVENTIONAL CATALYST BEDS
Regular micronised powder beds and pellets used for processes such as calcium looping or desulphurisation perform at marginal levels, because of their low specific surface area. This means, regardless of how cheap they may be, they generate other additional indirect costs that can be avoided, if more efficient systems are used. Some of those entail :
low performance efficieny and short breakthrough time which leads to
more operational downtime
high volumes of material are needed to absorb harmful gases and
increased waste processing costs are incurred
NANOARC QUANTUM-CATALYST BEDS
NANOARC offers high performance, multi-functional atomically-architectured quantum materials, functioning as efficient high surface area catalysts that absorb substantial amounts of H2S, SOx, CO2 and NOx emissions, at low nano-catalyst volumes. Furthermore, the byproducts of the reactions can be used for the development of new products in the semiconductor, LED, energy storage, ceramics and construction material sectors.
As a comparative measure, regular micronised catalysts absorb at best approximately at 0.16 - 0.34g of sulphur capture, for every gram of catalyst. Typical surface area for these micron-sized catalyst particles is about 6000 m²/kg. Our atomically-architectured quantum materials have speciifc surface area rangeing between 35930 - 63520 m²/kg and are capable of extracting 204 - 360 grams of sulphur, with just 1 gram (0.035 oz.) of nanocatalyst.
Under such a configuration, our quantum material nano-catalysts provide the following benefits:
high performance efficieny and much longer breakthrough time which leads to
much less operational downtime
low volumes of material are needed to absorb harmful gases and
little to no waste processing costs are incurred as products can be used in other industrial sectors
higher purity fuels with increased energy density are obtained and
significantly lower toxic emissions are produced.
USAGE: The nano-catalyst powder can be used in the following manner:
- as is, in a membrane or column for maximised surface area benefits
- as a coating on surfaces for active or passive CO2 capture
- compacted into pellets for usage in high pressure and high gas flow rate operation conditions or environments.

Q-LHO
COLOUR : White Nanopowder
CO2 CAPTURE EFFECTIVE AT 24 -204 °C (DRY/HUMID SLURRY) : from ~ 85 % efficiency
GAS CAPTURE : averaging from 1100 - 1958 cm3 (i.e. ~ 1.1 - 1.96 kg ) of CO2 per gram of nanocatalyst
APPLICATIONS : Effective nano-sorbent for CO2 and absorbs more CO2 than its weight. Depending on crystal structure, Oxygen (O2) is released as a by-product.
OTHER APPLICATIONS : In construction materials such as cement and ceramics, the nanocatalyst can be used to surpress alkali–silica reaction (ASR) also known as "concrete cancer".
It can be used to alkalise the reactor coolant in pressurised water reactors for corrosion control and also offers good radiation protection against free neutrons.
