Why SkyCycle™ For the Carbon Future:
# A Carbon Trifecta: Only SkyCycle™ can address CCU, CCS and direct capture.
# A profitable development path: Profits from product sales in early CCU plants will subsidize development scale-up and manufacturability cost-down.
# Ready-made for source emitters: Process requires little to none retrofitting needs to current emitter sites, except for pipes to existing smokestacks and is deployable across a multitude of industries.
# Low level of energy penalty: World-class energy penalty of 10% at 14% CO2 flue-gas levels; all models for other industries vary only-slightly; diligence for your industrial focus available.
# Mineral storage is safe, very stable, environmentally sensitive, and requires no maintenance expense.
# No lack of storage candidate sites: Ubiquitous availability of silicate resources, many of which are located near large emitter zones; storage process is also safe, dense, and uncomplicated.
# Cost of storage achievable below $20/ton, which is highly attractive compared to indicative carbon pricing expectations world-wide.
# Robust patent portfolio: Patented in U.S. as of March 2020, pending worldwide.
The technology is currently backed by energy-savvy investors including Fortistar, Braemar, BP Energy Ventures, Husky Partners, Carl Berg and Apollo.
