Deep dives
The Importance of Carbon Capture
Carbon capture is crucial in mitigating the significant emissions produced by various industrial sectors, particularly those that are hard to transition to renewable alternatives, such as cement production. For instance, a single cement plant can emit around 100,000 tons of CO2 each month, contributing immensely to global warming. Existing decarbonization solutions alone cannot address all emissions, which makes carbon capture a necessary technology for achieving climate targets. Companies like Capsule Technologies are focused on deploying proven carbon capture technology to address these challenges effectively.
