The people who make a difference

The Inventys team developed the VeloxoTherm™ System, the world's first post-combustion CO₂ capture process using structured adsorbents (picture a collection of connected sponges - all soaking up carbon). This is a radically different approach that uses smaller equipment, consumes less energy, adds no new components to the emissions stream and removes 90% of CO2 from the flue gas stream. At one third of the cost of traditional, solvent-based approaches, the patented VeloxoTherm™ technology is the most economically viable approach for separating CO₂ from flue gas streams. This technological marvel, which makes it easier and quicker to separate CO₂ from flue gas streams, may help bridge the gap between fossil fuels and environmental sustainability, and perhaps help pave the way to a low carbon economy.

The Clean50 Individual awards are selected from 16 diverse categories that transcend industries, academia, different levels of government, thought leaders and advocates, and are based on accomplishments delivered over the prior two years.
