Carbon capture and utilization is a new concept of capturing atmospheric carbon dioxide and converting it into valuable products. These types of projects offer huge benefits, including reducing carbon emissions, assisting in countries meeting net-zero carbon objectives, and producing products from this recycled carbon that also often provide a solution to another environmental issue.
One such environmental issue that is being addressed by a new carbon capture and utilization project is the detrimental impact of producing and using chemical dyes for textiles. Netherlands-based DyeCoo, a company with more than 15 years of experience in carbon dioxide technology, has launched the world’s first 100% water- and chemical-free textile processing solution.
