Our
Technology
At ZPore, LLC, we're pioneering the future of Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology to confront the global challenge of carbon dioxide (CO2) accumulation. Leveraging advanced materials and cutting-edge manufacturing, we're proud to introduce our groundbreaking solution: the 3D Gyroid Membrane Contactor (3D-GMC) system. Inspired by the intricate structure of human lungs, our technology offers a significant leap in CO2 separation efficiency, opening new pathways for sustainable industrial and environmental applications.
Technology Overview
The 3D-GMC system stands at the forefront of DAC innovation, designed to maximize CO2 capture efficiency while minimizing the system's footprint and energy consumption. Key features of our technology include:
-
Biomimetic Design: Mimicking the intricate structure of lung tissues, our 3D gyroid membrane maximizes surface area with 7,000 m²/m³ packing density, enabling unparalleled COâ‚‚ separation.
-
Superior Performance: Our membrane contactor surpasses traditional wet scrubber, hollow fiber membrane contactors (HFMCs), and air-liquid contactor, offering 3x and 10x higher COâ‚‚ flux in flue gas and DAC, respectively.
-
High Process Intensification: The innovative design achieves 10x process intensification, significantly reducing capital and operational costs.
