The topic of Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) and Direct Air Capture (DAC) has the potential to make a significant contribution to climate change and at the same time represents an important building block in the future economic system. That is why Hengst Filtration is proud to present the first CCU/DAC system for capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and then utilizing the carbon.“With this technology, we are fully committed to our vision of “purifying our planet,” because we adsorb the pollutants from the air and then make them available for other processes,” said Jens Röttgering, owner of Hengst Filtration.
Carbon Capture and Utilization refers to the filtration, transport and subsequent use of CO2. Direct Air Capture refers to the extraction of CO2 from the air. Dr. Rolf Gausepohl, Head of the TechCenter Filtration at Hengst, commented: “Our CCU unit is fully developed and works in the daily process. We are now looking for suitable partners to further develop the technology and adapt it to real-life conditions.”
