About
CO2CO is a 2021 Imperial College London startup focused on atmospheric carbon dioxide removal, using thermal transformation of biological waste material to decarbonise the transport, construction, and energy industry sectors. The company grows microalgae in large outdoor ponds and processes the algal biomass to biochar using a two-step carbonisation system. It is also leading development of a microalgal-based biohybrid bitumen (MAB-bitumen) with Innovate UK, Tarmac, Nanolyse Technologies, Imperial College London, and the University of Sheffield.
