About the Company
C-Quester, Inc. offers state-of-the-art services and equipment to capture carbon dioxide (CO2). Based upon original research and development done at Caltech under Professors Hunt and Hoffmann, C-Quester delivers carbon neutrality for traditional electricity production without sacrificing cost or reliability. Its patent-pending granulated metal carbonate sorption technology (GMC) captures over 90 percent of the CO2 emitted from post-combustion point-sources (flue gases).
About the Solution
With a low footprint and few permitting requirements, GMC is easily and quickly fitted to existing gas-fired power plants. As such, these plants are able to continue operating through their full life-cycle, as well as at night and during poor weather when renewables are forced to rely upon previously stored energy.
C-Quester is able to offer carbon capture and storage (CCS) as a service for approximately $60 per ton of CO2. The client keeps ownership of the CO2 captured and can obtain applicable tax benefits (e.g., 45Q).
