Scope 1 and 2 emissions reduction and energy-efficient petrochemical separations
“Power generation accounts for more than a third of global greenhouse gas emissions.” – U.S. Energy Information Administration
Decarbonizing the energy industry by reducing carbon intensity
Power is used across a range of sectors from consumer to industry, using power as efficiently as possible is critical to reducing the effects of climate change.
Numat’s MOF-based solutions can support the decarbonization of the energy sector by reducing the carbon intensity of energy intensive separations, reducing scope 2 emissions. The role of Numat’s precision chemistry is two-fold in this area, abating emissions from power generation and enabling the efficient use of power by users.
Current Use Cases
Abatement
Applying SENTINEL™ filtration technology to precisely capture and separate a diverse range of greenhouse gases reducing the carbon footprint of power generation.
Numat’s SENTINEL™ filtration technology makes the world’s best filters for the toxic industrial chemicals polluting the air we breathe. Currently trusted by the U.S. Department of Defense to protect the lives of our soldiers and fire responders, this same technology can be developed to shield our built environment from industrial emissions.
Membrane Separation
In collaboration with an industrial partner, Numat is developing a membrane separation process to displace an industrially relevant distillation process.
A non-thermal separation process that can be run continuously, membranes offer dramatic energy savings when compared to traditional separation processes. The membrane technology leverages Numat’s precision chemistry coupled with our partner’s membrane solution to effect the separation of the targeted molecules.
Today, power generation accounts for two-thirds of global greenhouse gas emissions. As the industry is accelerating efforts to combat climate change, MOFs provide a powerful platform to capture toxic chemicals such as ammonia, nitrogen dioxide, chlorine, organophosphates and more.
Numat’s MOF-based solutions can support the decarbonization of the energy sector by reducing the carbon intensity of energy intensive separations, reducing scope 1 and 2 emissions.
Applying SENTINEL™’s filtration technology to precisely capture and separate toxic chemicals to hard-to-abate toxic and greenhouse gasses enables us to solve the industry’s most pressing sustainability challenge.
