Carbon Clean announces commercialisation of CycloneCC series

Published by , Assistant Editor
Hydrocarbon Engineering,


Carbon Clean has announced the launch of its breakthrough CycloneCC C1 series, marking the penultimate stage in the technology’s commercialisation. The CycloneCC C1 series is available in concentrations ranging from 3% to 20%, capturing up to 100 000 tpy of CO2.

The CycloneCC C1 unit is fully modular and columnless, achieving a height reduction of 70% compared to conventional solutions. Rotating Packed Bed (RPB) technology replaces every column used in a conventional plant, which reduces the steel required by 35% and lowers the unit’s carbon footprint.

The unit footprint is up to 50% smaller than conventional carbon capture plants, with its largest equipment sizes reduced by a factor of 10. Each unit is prefabricated, skid-mounted and delivered on road truckable modules, cutting the costs associated with transport, logistics, site preparation and installation. CycloneCC C1 uses first-of-a-kind (FOAK) technology to reduce the total installed cost of carbon capture by up to 50% compared to conventional solutions.

With the looming 2030 deadline for achieving a 45% reduction in global emissions, hard-to-abate industries are facing increasing pressure to decarbonise. However, more than 50% of industrial emitters lack the space required to deploy conventional carbon capture plants. CycloneCC C1 offers a viable, cost-effective route to decarbonisation, particularly for small-to-midsize emitters. CycloneCC C1 is also ideal for emitters of all sizes looking to deploy carbon capture units across multiple flue gas emission sources.

Prateek Bumb, Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of Carbon Clean, said: “The launch of the CycloneCC C1 series is a major milestone in the technology’s commercialisation. Repeatability is key to mass adoption, as demonstrated with solar panels and EV batteries. Carbon Clean is leading a similar transformation through eliminating the columns used in conventional carbon capture solutions. Delivering fully modular, columnless, replicable units with a substantially smaller footprint is a technological breakthrough. CycloneCC’s ‘Lego-block’, ‘plug and play’ design makes it simple and cost-effective to install, making carbon capture financially and logistically viable to be deployed at scale. First-mover customers and early adopters will have the advantage of tangible decarbonisation results while benefiting from a staggered approach to capital investment due to CycloneCC C1’s modular design.”
