Blue Planet Ltd

Blue Planet’s technology uses CO₂ as a raw material for making carbonate rocks. The carbonate rocks produced are used in place of natural limestone rock mined from quarries, which is the principal component of concrete.

CO₂ from flue gas is converted to carbonate (or CO3=) by contacting CO₂-containing gas with water-based capture solutions. This differentiates Blue Planet from most CO₂ capture methods because the captured CO2 does not require a purification step, which is an energy and capital-intensive process. As a result, Blue Planet’s capture method is extremely efficient and results in a lower cost than traditional methods of CO₂ capture.
