About CQT

Determination

Driven by our determination to combat climate change and create sustainable solutions, CQT was launched in the Spring of 2023. By joining the Technical University of Munich’s (TUM) Venture Lab Food Agro Biotech (FAB) in Freising, we embarked on an exciting journey. Since then, we have made significant progress in developing CQT’s business case and refining our innovative Bio-Based Direct Air Capture (BBDAC) solution.

Our Journey

Since December 2023, we are conducting experiments in a TUM laboratory greenhouse that simulates the insolation, climate, and soil conditions of potential project regions. This research aims to gather data on growth rates and forecast the carbon yields of various specially selected and bred plant species. The results so far have been phenomenal, promising great potential for our future carbon yields.

In early 2024, our journey took us to Morocco, where we engaged with state agencies and potential partners to refine our business case and develop a concrete investment plan for CQT’s first development stage. This period marked our transition from an idea to an investment-ready startup, filled with enthusiasm and prepared to tackle future challenges.

Vision

We envision a world where even hard-to-eliminate emissions are effectively neutralized, contributing to a sustainable future. Negative emissions are essential to meeting climate goals and neutralizing residual emissions. CQT captures and stores atmospheric CO2 by transforming gaseous CO2 into solid matter, providing a tangible solution for companies committed to true decarbonization.

Mission

Our mission is to accelerate the transition to a net-zero carbon world by offering high-quality decarbonization solutions. According to the IPCC, negative emissions are necessary to achieve the 1.5/2°C climate goals. We aim to advance net-zero technologies, helping companies achieve concrete mitigation of their CO2 emissions, thereby contributing to the global effort to preserve a viable planet.

Principles

Guided by our vision and mission, we are committed to the highest quality of carbon mitigation, emphasizing additionality, permanence, and zero carbon leakage. At CQT, we fully endorse the IPCC’s recommendations and reject the use of mitigation efforts as a substitute for sincere decarbonization. All CO2 emissions must be drastically reduced. Our carbon capture method is a supplement in the fight against climate catastrophe, not a cure-all. By transforming atmospheric CO2 into easy-to-store solid carbon, we ensure our efforts are tangible and impactful.
