Carbon Reform, a leading climate technology company specialising in decentralised carbon capture, has announced the successful installation and pilot testing of its groundbreaking product, the Carbon Capsule.
Installed at the M. Davis & Sons facility in Kennett Square, PA last month, the pilot unit is now collecting valuable data on its performance for effectively capturing excess carbon dioxide (CO2) and enhancing indoor air quality.
The Carbon Capsule® is an advanced unit that integrates with existing HVAC systems, providing a simple retrofit solution for facility managers and building owners.
Unlike traditional building energy optimization solutions that neglect comprehensive air purification, Carbon Reform's Carbon Capsule efficiently reduces CO2 levels while eliminating harmful particulate matter, pathogens, and volatile organic compounds from the air, thus enhancing indoor air quality and decreasing energy consumption.
By purifying the air, Carbon Reform's solution creates equal access to clean air for all occupants, from school-age children in education buildings to working professionals in office complexes.
Carbon Reform CEO, Jo Norris, said the company’s mission is to make clean air accessible to everyone.
"Our Carbon Capsule® is designed to prioritise the well-being of building occupants, while promoting energy efficiency and environmental responsibility, all while being easy on the customer to install and maintain,” Norris said.
A key feature of the Carbon Capsule® is its ability to achieve permanent carbon capture, contributing to the reduction of carbon footprints in alignment with corporate and building owners' climate strategies.
Through cutting-edge carbon capture technology, Carbon Reform ensures that captured CO2 is stored in a carbon-negative limestone, offering an effective and reusable solution for reducing carbon footprints. That limestone can be used in steel and glass manufacturing, mining, paper production, water treatment and purification, and agriculture, just to name a few.
By addressing the staggering 40 per cent of global carbon emissions that stem from buildings, Carbon Reform empowers building owners and businesses to play an active role in mitigating climate change.
