CS Tech Solution Limited (CS Tech), a leader in local carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) technologies in Asia, has unveiled Hong Kong’s first-ever carbon capture system. This initiative combines advanced pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology from the United Kingdom with CS Tech’s proprietary equipment to efficiently convert industrial CO2 emissions and waste into valuable resources. The system is designed to significantly reduce carbon emissions while promoting a circular economy.
As the climate crisis intensifies, carbon capture has emerged as a vital tool in global efforts to mitigate emissions. Among various approaches, point source capture stands out for its energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Leveraging advancements in CCU technologies, CS Tech has introduced a compact and energy-efficient system tailored for the Asian region.
The system captures CO2 emissions from a biochar production facility that repurposes wooden pallets, commonly used in construction, into biochar. The captured CO2 is then sequestered into concrete blocks via CS Tech’s proprietary injection system, transforming industrial emissions into raw materials for low-carbon construction. This process not only reduces carbon emissions but also fosters the development of sustainable building materials, including ready-mix concrete and related products.
In collaboration with the Hong Kong Carbon Trading Centre (HKCTC), CS Tech is advancing methodologies for carbon credit certification. These credits, verified by independent bodies, can be traded on carbon markets, adding economic value to low-carbon construction materials.
To further drive innovation in carbon reduction, CS Tech recently hosted the Waste Management and Recycling Association of Singapore (WMRAS) at its Research & Development Centre in Tuen Mun. The visit included Dr. Amy Khor, Singapore’s Senior Minister of State for Sustainability and the Environment, alongside leading sustainability experts. The delegation explored CS Tech’s carbon capture system and discussed future trends in carbon management, reinforcing shared goals of achieving net-zero emissions.
