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).

Nanoengineered separator coatings and liquid electrolytes for faster charging, low cost, and energy-dense lithium-ion and lithium-metal batteries. Sepion Technologies has deployed its proprietary material discovery platform powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) to predict material properties such as flash point and viscosity to develop a non-flammable liquid electrolyte that can reduce the risk and severity of fires in electric vehicles (EV) batteries.

The Travertine process converts aqueous sulfate into sulfuric acid and caustic solutions through electrolysis, generating clean and competitively priced hydrogen. The process involves three primary units. Initially, electrolysis divides aqueous sulfate into sulfuric acid and caustic solutions. Subsequently, Direct Air Capture (DAC) utilizes the caustic solution to extract CO2 from the air, yielding a carbonate solution. Lastly, the carbonate solution reacts with sulfate byproducts to form minerals and regenerate aqueous sulfate through mineralization.

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.

Digital automatization of chemistry to make chemical synthesis easy and instant. Chemify uses a programming language to employ the world’s largest database of validated chemical reactions. By implementing the full digital chemistry stack into their automated robotic synthesis cluster facility, Chemify can transform chemical code into real molecules on demand and at scale. Artificial intelligence is also used to discover and design novel molecules rapidly. Digitizing and automating chemistry helps prevent exposure to toxic chemicals in the workplace and waste generation.

Sublime Cement™ is a carbon-neutral alternative to ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Sublime’s novel cement process uses electrochemistry to extract reactive calcium (Sublime Lime™) and Silicates from abundant raw materials that are then blended into a final cement. In the electrochemical process, entire parts of non-carbonate rocks are converted into cement at ambient temperatures. The process uses carbon-free feedstocks and low temperatures, thus, Sublime Cement does not emit CO2. This cement is a drop-in replacement for OPC, meeting or exceeding construction performance standards.
