DECARBONIZATION<\/h4>

With ceramic<\/strong><\/h1>\n

high-temperature technology<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Reduce CO\u2082.<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n

Ceram develops high-performance substrates for carbon capture applications, which are already in use in several pilot plants worldwide. The focus is on maximum specific surface area, low mass, and long service life, because for us, CO\u2082 is not waste, but a valuable raw material. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

OUR TECHNOLOGY<\/h3><\/div><\/div>\n\n

Decarbonization doesn't start tomorrow; it's already measurable today<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n

Every ceramic heat storage unit and every catalyst from Ceram Austria reduces the energy and fuel requirements of industrial processes. Regenerative Thermal Oxidation (RTO) recovers process heat with up to 97 percent thermal efficiency and enables autothermal operation without auxiliary fuel, while optimized process control simultaneously reduces gas and electricity consumption. According to our own estimates, Ceram products used worldwide prevent approximately 5 million tons of CO\u2082 per year and also reduce 125,000 tons of nitrogen oxides.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ceram is developing the next generation of high-performance substrates for carbon capture applications, which are already in use in several pilot plants. The materials science focus is on an extremely high specific surface area that securely binds applied sorbents or MOFs, as well as low mass to accelerate desorption cycles. Low manufacturing costs for the ceramics ensure the economic viability of the process, while a long service life guarantees the return on investment and promotes the principles of the circular economy. Ceram regards CO\u2082 as a valuable raw material that should neither be emitted unused nor permanently stored.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
