Mobile CO₂ Capture Technology

Capture the culprit!

Qaptis captures CO₂ where emissions begin.

Born from EPFL research, Qaptis develops modular carbon capture systems for hard-to-abate industries across mobile and stationary applications. We are a pioneer in developing scalable, cost-effective, and energy-efficient carbon capture solutions focused on capturing CO₂ at the source of emissions. Our growing patent portfolio covers technologies ranging from state-of-the-art CO₂ adsorption units to Ultra-Efficient dryer and waste heat recovery systems.

Technology built for flexible deployment.

Qaptis focuses on modular CO₂ capture technologies for small and medium industrial applications. Designed as plug-in systems, our solutions can be adapted to a wide range of operating conditions, helping emitters reduce CO₂ at the source with minimal disruption to existing processes.

Modular product design: Flexible by design. Efficient in operation.

Qaptis technologies are built around a modular product architecture, allowing each CO₂ capture system to be adapted to different emission sources, operating conditions, and industrial environments. Standardized interfaces connect the modules seamlessly, making the system easier to configure, integrate, scale, and maintain.
The process begins with pre-treatment, where the exhaust gas is conditioned by removing moisture and recovering waste heat. This recovered heat is then reused within the system to support other energy-demanding steps, improving overall efficiency and reducing external energy requirements.
The second module selectively separates CO₂ from the exhaust stream, producing a concentrated CO₂ flow while releasing the treated exhaust back to the environment. The captured CO₂ is then compressed in the third module and transferred to the final storage module, where it is prepared for transport, utilization, or permanent storage.
This modular approach gives customers a practical path to CO₂ capture: lower integration complexity, greater operational flexibility, and reduced implementation costs compared with fully customized systems.

CO2 Circularity: Route to Cabron Independence

Tier 1: Strategic Evaluation Report

A clear roadmap for making the right decisions.

Qaptis helps clients evaluate how plug-in CO₂ capture systems can be integrated into their products, assets, and infrastructure. This strategic assessment provides a structured view of the technical requirements, economic impact, regulatory landscape, and available incentive mechanisms.

The objective is to give each client a clear, decision-ready roadmap: where CO₂ capture can create value, what level of integration is required, what costs and benefits to expect, and which partners may be needed across the value chain.

For clients seeking to move beyond evaluation, Qaptis can also support pilot testing and help build partnerships with technology, infrastructure, financing, and CO₂ valorization partners. This enables companies to move from strategic assessment to practical deployment with greater confidence.

Tier 2: Joint Development

From concept to validated prototype.

For clients ready to accelerate their net-zero roadmap, Qaptis offers joint development programs covering the full cycle from conceptual design and system architecture to prototype manufacturing and commissioning.

Our engineering-driven approach helps reduce development risk, control costs, and shorten the path from feasibility to field validation. Working closely with each client, we define performance targets, adapt the technology to specific applications, and generate valuable know-how and intellectual property throughout the development process.

Qaptis can also help structure effective project consortia by bringing together industrial partners, technology providers, funding organizations, and value-chain stakeholders. This enables clients to share development costs, access co-financing opportunities, and move faster toward deployable CO₂ capture solutions.

Tier 3: Implementation

Turning CO₂ capture plans into deployed systems.

For stationary applications with near-term deployment potential — such as boilers, furnaces, and other fixed emission sources — Qaptis supports clients in implementing CO₂ capture systems efficiently and with reduced integration complexity.

We provide the system design and manufacturing specifications needed to move from engineering to deployment, working with qualified regional partners where local production, assembly, or installation is required. In parallel, we help define the most suitable pathway for captured CO₂, whether through utilization, transport, storage, or partnerships with local governments, energy providers, gas companies, and industrial offtakers.

By mapping the full value chain before implementation, Qaptis helps clients identify technical requirements, infrastructure needs, commercial partners, and regulatory considerations early in the process. We also support access to public funding, incentives, and project financing opportunities to lower deployment barriers and accelerate adoption.
