Reactive Capture and Conversion (RCC) is an emerging strategy that integrates CO₂ capture and chemical conversion into a single, streamlined process.
Unlike conventional systems where CO₂ is first captured and then transported to a separate reactor for utilization, RCC enables simultaneous capture and conversion, thereby reducing process complexity, energy consumption, and capital cost.
Electrochemical RCC (eRCC) using advanced electrolyzer designs
Thermochemical RCC (tRCC) utilizing heat-activated dual-functional materials
Hybrid RCC Systems integrating capture modules with direct conversion reactors
Direct Air Capture (DAC) is an advanced carbon removal technology that extracts CO₂ directly from ambient air using chemical or physical sorbents.
Given the ultra-low concentration of CO₂ in the atmosphere (~420 ppm), DAC presents a unique challenge in terms of material performance, energy efficiency, and economic viability — yet it remains one of the most promising solutions for achieving net-zero emissions.
