This cargo ship is turning its CO2 emissions into green cement
A UK startup, Seabound, has developed a carbon capture system that will be installed on a German cargo ship, the UBC Cork, to trap its CO2 emissions and convert them into cement for onshore construction. This technology is the world's first commercial carbon capture system for ships and is expected to be scaled across hundreds, and eventually thousands, of vessels. The system will gather valuable data, optimize future iterations, and demonstrate the potential for the maritime industry to play a significant role in addressing climate change through innovative carbon capture solutions. This project represents a step towards more sustainable shipping practices and the utilization of captured emissions for construction purposes.
