About CO2 Capsol

CO2 Capsol offers a cost competitive and environmentally friendly carbon capture technology utilizing the safe solvent hot potassium carbonate (HPC). HPC has been used for CO2 removal from gas streams for more than 70 years in different industries globally and is a well-known process in the industry. What differentiates CO2 Capsol´s HPC technology from other HPC (and amine) technologies, is a patented energy-recuperation which keeps most of the energy within the system, and optimal integration of the Company´s solution into the host plant's processes to decrease complexity and create new revenue streams for the industrial emitter.

Due to strong interest in the Company´s technology, CO2 Capsol also offers the mobile, containerised carbon capture demonstration unit, CapsolGo. CapsolGo is an easy and affordable way for industrial emitters to test CO2 Capsol's safe and environmentally friendly HPC technology, and for many the first step towards a full-scale carbon capture plant.

CO2 Capsol has a very competitive technology protected by IP rights. The base case revenue model is to license out patents. We negotiate directly with project owners or participate by collaboration with industrial players.

CO2 Capsol is listed on Euronext Growth Oslo, Norway (ticker: CAPSL).
