Congratulations to ICM director Prof. Sant!
The ocean-based carbon removal technology he helped develop could provide an affordable way to mitigate climate change.

About us
The Institute for Carbon Management (ICM) is a cross-campus technology-translation entity at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). ICM translates pioneering carbon management solutions from the (laboratory) bench-scale to pre-commercial/commercial-scale devices, prototypes, and (software) solutions. ICM's activities span two major focus areas: (1) Technologies for carbon dioxide removal (from the atmosphere), utilization, and avoidance, and (2) Technologies for creating new supply chains, and processing approaches for critical materials and elements (e.g., Li, Ni, Co, Mn, Mo) that are foundational to accelerating the clean energy transition, as well as reducing the carbon footprint of extractive processes. ICM is organized into action teams that are convergent, agile, and world-class. Prominently, these action teams have enabled ICM-born technologies to be awarded the NRG COSIA Carbon XPRIZE, and the 2021 Liveability Challenge, among others. ICM's technologies are now being commercialized via spin-out companies including CarbonBuilt Inc., Concrete-AI Inc., and Equatic Inc.

This scalable innovation fights climate change and offers a source of green energy! Led by Gaurav Sant, 2024 Earthshot Prize Finalist Equatic uses a technology inspired by nature to remove harmful carbon from the ocean whilst producing clean hydrogen fuel. Pilot projects are already successfully operating in Singapore and Los Angeles with over 75,000 tonnes of CO₂ removal under contract. Learn more: https://bit.ly/4eVbLBG

Imagine if we could turbocharge the ocean’s natural ability to store #carbon ⏩ LA-based company Equatic.tech is doing just this. Using a technique called electrolysis, they are amplifying the ocean's capacity to absorb and permanently store massive amounts of CO2. This method also creates #greenhydrogen – a clean energy that can be used to decarbonise the transport and industrial sectors. Gaurav N.
