About
C-Capture is a 2009 University of Leeds spinout based in Leeds, UK, developing a low-hazard, non-amine solvent system for post-combustion CO2 capture from industrial flue gases, with pilot deployments at Drax Power Station for BECCS and at Heidelberg Materials and Pilkington sites. In March 2025 the company carried out mass redundancies after cancelling a planned 2025 fundraise; Drax is providing bridging funding to keep the firm solvent while a buyer is sought, and only a small number of staff have been retained.
