About
Cquestr8 is a Durham, UK-based startup founded in 2020 developing a reactor-based accelerated mineral carbonation process using magnesium-rich silicates to sequester CO2 from concentrated industrial sources like cement, lime, steel, biogas and fermentation, producing stable carbonates and ocean bicarbonate. The company raised a $300K seed round from Counteract in April 2021 and was a finalist in the 2023 SOSV Climate Tech Summit Startup Innovation Challenge. Public signal since 2024 has been limited.
