carbon dioxide reduction

Brimstone has developed an industrial process for producing industry-standard Portland cement with significantly less carbon emissions. Brimstone’s decarbonized process is a breakthrough in cement production, making industry-standard Portland cement with carbon-free calcium silicate rock instead of limestone. Brimstone cement is chemically and physically identical to conventional Portland cement, with the same quality and performance. Portland cement contains two core products: Portland cement clinker and supplementary cementitious materials (SCM).

Trillium has developed a technology that produces bio-ACN™ from glycerol. Glycerol is a renewable feedstock that is a byproduct of converting natural oils and fats into soaps, detergents, and biofuels. Bio-ACN™ has a 70% lower carbon footprint than petroleum-based acrylonitrile. This process is scalable and cost-competitive due to the use of an efficient catalytic process that dehydrates glycerin to acrolein. Acrylonitrile is then produced by reacting acrolein with oxygen and ammonia.

Automated recycling process that removes crucial ingredients to produce new EV batteries. In this process, robots remove modules and cells from discharged batteries. Materials are crushed, shredded, and separated into fractions of metals and plastics.

Bio-FREED™ is a one-step, foam-based dyeing process powered by Modern Meadow's application platform Bio-Alloy™. The technology combines proteins with bio-based polymers to create a molecularly mixed, miscible blend with unique functionalities and performances, significantly reducing carbon emission footprint by eliminating inefficiencies in the dyeing process in the textile industry. Compared to traditional three-step methods, this technology reduces up to 95% of water use and 80% of dyes applied, decreases energy use by 67%, and can be applied to any stage of textile production.
