Carbon Capture

Scrubber Atmospherics uses wet scrubbers to capture CO2

The Technology:

To remove air pollutants, wet scrubbers are designed to maximize direct contact between water and gaseous combustion products. CO2 is soluble in water. Wet scrubbers offer the ideal mechanism to remove CO2 from combustion exhaust gases. Scrubber Atmospherics uses scrubber water additives to efficiently capture CO2.

After the scrubber water absorbs CO2 and other pollutants it exits the scrubber and enters a water treatment system. In the treatment system, pollutants are removed, and the water is recirculated back to the scrubber. CO2 is removed in the water treatment system to complete the carbon capture cycle.

The Business:

Using existing wet scrubbers in Point Source Carbon Capture represents the Lowest Cost Technology per ton of CO2 removed.

Carbon captured in scrubbers can be monetized through selling carbon offsets and claiming federal tax credits. Scrubber Atmospherics partners with facilities to capture CO2 efficiently  and maximize the income stream from carbon capture.

In addition to financial benefits, facilities gain a goodwill dividend with their local communities. Starting a carbon reduction program is a great way to demonstrate good environmental stewardship.

The Environmental Benefits:

Carbon capture technology presents significant environmental benefits:

• Directly reducing greenhouse gas emissions 

• Mitigating the impacts of climate change 

• Improving air quality 

• Offering potential pathways for carbon reuse 

Industrial combustion sources are a large contributor of CO2 emissions. Carbon Capture from these sources represents a significant opportunity to decrease the amount of greenhouse gas entering the atmosphere and help mitigate the environmental cost of human-caused climate change.
