Divert Waste. Fix Carbon. Change Industry.
We take ‘waste’ organics that are causing harm today, transform them into a clean fixed carbon, then put that new material to use.
-
All life is made of carbon that breaks down when it decomposes by bonding to other molecules.
Our process binds carbon together instead so that it is no longer available to break down, 'fixing' it in place.
Analyses on our materials show that the carbon in OurCarbon is so tightly bound, it will not break down into greenhouse gases for centuries.
Decarbonize Concrete
Every pound of OurCarbon that goes into concrete stores over 1 pound of CO2e durably, with the carbon benefit going directly to the building’s overall embodied carbon.
Replace Fossil Pigment
OurCarbon can be utilized in inks and coatings, polymers, foams, and more as a black colorant in the place of fossil dependent carbon black.
Our first input:
Municipal Biosolids
Wastewater treatment does amazing things to sewage, but its final output contaminates soil and emits greenhouse gas.
Our technology is able to transform these biosolids into a material that is clean, stable, and ready for use.
Quality material,
Serious impact.
We’ve conducted in depth Life Cycle Assessments (LCA’s) of our production, and the impacts are clear.
For every ton of OurCarbon Produced:
