Cquestr8 Secures $300,000 Seed Funding to Advance Carbon Sequestration Technology

  • UK-based climate tech startup Cquestr8 has raised $300,000 in seed funding from Counteract

  • The company, which focuses on decarbonizing cement, lime, and steel production, will use the funds to develop its carbon sequestration solution

  • Cquestr8's technology leverages natural processes to capture and store CO2 as stable ocean bicarbonate

      • ProblemTechnology

      "Cement, steel, and lime production are major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, accelerating climate change. Existing carbon capture and storage solutions are often expensive, unreliable, or have limited scalability."

      Solution

      "Cquestr8's technology uses accelerated weathering to safely and permanently sequester CO2 as stable ocean bicarbonate. This natural process is highly scalable, cost-effective, and offers additional benefits like reducing ocean acidification."
