01

Why is carbon capture essential?

There is no pathway to net zero without carbon capture. For heavy industries such as cement, steel, power, and chemicals - together responsible for roughly 30% of global COâ‚‚ emissions - many emissions are process-related and unavoidable, even with maximum energy efficiency or renewable power. There is no single silver bullet for decarbonisation. Carbon capture is a critical pillar of the net-zero toolkit, working alongside other clean technologies such as electrification, green hydrogen, biomass, and renewable energy. While these solutions reduce future emissions, carbon capture addresses existing and hard-to-abate emissions at their source, enabling deep and immediate reductions. For industrial decarbonisation at scale, carbon capture is not optional - it is essential.

02

What does Chemsol do and what industries do you help?

Chemsol Sustainability Solutions develops and deploys advanced carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) systems for hard-to-abate industrial sectors. We enable industries to capture COâ‚‚ directly at the source and convert it into valuable products, helping them decarbonise without disrupting core operations.

​

We work with heavy and process-intensive industries such as cement, steel, power generation, refineries, and chemicals, where a large portion of emissions are unavoidable and cannot be eliminated through electrification or renewables alone. These sectors account for a significant share of global industrial emissions and require practical, scalable carbon capture solutions.

​

Chemsol’s technology is modular, energy-efficient, and retrofit-ready, designed for rapid deployment across existing plants. Our innovation is supported by filed patent applications and pilot-scale deployments, with a clear pathway toward commercial systems. By integrating capture with COâ‚‚ utilisation, we help industries reduce carbon risk, meet climate regulations, and move toward a profitable, net-zero future.

03

What are the solutions offered by Chemsol and how do you differ?

Chemsol Sustainability Solutions differs in both approach and scope. Chemsol’s capture technology is built around Sustanol™, a next-generation solvent engineered for lower regeneration energy, higher stability, and easier integration with COâ‚‚ utilisation pathways. Chemsol is designed from the outset as a capture-to-value (CCU) platform, enabling downstream conversion of COâ‚‚ into fuels, chemicals, and materials.

​

Chemsol’s systems are modular, utilisation-ready, and cost-optimised for emerging markets, supported by filed patent applications and pilot-scale deployments, with a clear roadmap to commercial scale.

04

How do you differ from established carbon capture technology suppliers?

Chemsol Sustainability Solutions differs from established carbon capture suppliers by focusing on capture-to-value, not capture alone. While many traditional providers specialise primarily in COâ‚‚ capture equipment and feasibility support across the CCUS value chain, Chemsol is built from the ground up to integrate capture directly with utilisation, turning emissions into commercially valuable products.

​

At the core of Chemsol’s approach is Sustanol™, our proprietary solvent engineered for lower regeneration energy, improved stability, and reduced operating cost per tonne of COâ‚‚ captured. This enables smaller equipment footprints and easier retrofitting into existing industrial plants, particularly in space and cost constrained facilities.

​

Unlike established suppliers that often rely on large, bespoke installations, Chemsol emphasises modular, scalable systems designed for rapid deployment and replication across multiple sites. Our technology roadmap is supported by filed patent applications and pilot-scale validation, with a clear pathway to commercial deployment.

​

By combining energy-efficient capture, modular design, and built-in COâ‚‚ utilisation, Chemsol helps industrial emitters decarbonise faster - while creating economic value from captured carbon.

05

What does ‘modular solution’ mean?

A modular solution means the carbon capture system is designed, manufactured, and tested as standardised building blocks rather than custom-built entirely on site.

​

At Chemsol Sustainability Solutions, our modular carbon capture units are pre-engineered, skid-mounted, and factory-assembled, then transported to site by road, sea, or rail. On site, these modules are quickly connected and commissioned, allowing customers to begin capturing COâ‚‚ with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

​

Modularisation also enables step-by-step scaling. Customers can start with a smaller system and add additional modules over time as capacity or decarbonisation requirements increases thus aligning capital investment with their long-term roadmap.

​

By shifting most fabrication and assembly to a controlled factory environment, modular systems improve construction quality, enhance safety, shorten project timelines, and significantly reduce on-site labour and costs. This proven approach, widely used in the oil and gas sector, makes industrial carbon capture faster, safer, and more cost-effective to deploy.

06

Will your carbon capture technology work with my flue gas?

In most cases, yes. Chemsol’s carbon capture technology is designed to work with a wide range of industrial flue gases.

​

At Chemsol Sustainability Solutions, our system can be applied to both low-pressure flue gas streams with COâ‚‚ concentrations typically in the range of ~2-30% and medium- to high-pressure gas streams with COâ‚‚ concentrations typically in the range of ~20-60%. This covers emissions from industries such as cement, steel, power generation, refineries, and chemicals, and makes the technology suitable for small-to-mid-scale sources as well as higher-concentration process streams.

​

As with all solvent-based capture systems, pre-treatment is required to remove particulates, sulphur compounds, and other trace impurities to protect solvent performance and ensure long-term reliability. The system also requires standard industrial utilities, including heat, cooling, electricity, and water.

​

Using our Sustanol™ solvent and modular design, Chemsol tailors each system to the specific flue gas composition and site conditions for efficient, reliable COâ‚‚ capture.

07

What is Chemsol’s proprietary solvent?

Sustanol™ is a next-generation carbon capture solvent developed by Chemsol Sustainability Solutions to enable high-efficiency, low-energy COâ‚‚ capture across a wide range of industrial flue and process gas streams. It is engineered for lower regeneration energy, improved thermal and chemical stability, and reduced solvent degradation compared to conventional amine systems - resulting in lower operating costs and longer solvent life.

​

Unlike traditional capture-only solvents, Sustanol™ is designed to be utilisation-ready, enabling seamless integration with downstream COâ‚‚ conversion. This makes it a core enabler of Chemsol’s capture-to-value (CCU) approach.
