CARBON UPCYCLING UCLA OVERVIEW Carbon Upcycling UCLA’s breakthrough technology creates CO2NCRETETM: strong, prefabricated components that directly substitute for standard construction products with a CO2 footprint less than half that of conventional concrete. The technology offers unprecedented energy efficiency and scalability, and unlocks the potential to use abundant and cheap fly ash. MARKET Carbon Upcycling UCLA is initially targeting the $21B precast concrete and concrete masonry markets, which themselves are segments of the larger $900B global concrete market. Concrete production is responsible for 7% of the world’s annual CO2 emissions, and the industry is facing increasing pressure from customers and regulators to reduce them. SOLUTION AND ADVANTAGE Carbon Upcycling’s process locks flue gas CO2 into limestone within CO2NCRETETM. The process requires minimal CAPEX, since it requires minimal modification of host facilities, avoids a capture system, and readily integrates into existing construction supply chains and workflows. Additionally, it can incorporate low-value fly ashes, including those stored in landfills and ponds, while providing engineering performance equivalent to typical concrete. The low cost of CO2NCRETETM is a significant advantage in the low margin concrete business. BUSINESS MODEL The team will license its technology to emission-intensive sectors as a more profitable way to produce concrete. Licensees can monetize the carbon reductions by securing carbon credits in eligible carbon markets, meet governmental, social, and corporate pressures to reduce carbon emissions, and market the CO2-based products as a low-carbon alternative to existing materials. CO2NCRETETM also presents a unique ability to turn a supply cost – coal ash tipping fees – into revenue. TEAM The team features deep technical skills and strong commercialization experience, and has built an advisory board of leading experts representing various segments of the construction and energy sectors. Dr. Gaurav Sant is founder and CEO, and Associate Professor and Henry Samueli Fellow of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UCLA. Jim McDermott is co-founder and commercialization lead, runs a carbon-to-value investment fund, and has extensive commercialization experience, having led multiple successful lab-to-exit companies. Stephen Raab is COO, and has extensive experience in working with the coal power sector in environmental programs, compliance and regulation management, and project development. The technical team is rounded-out by five Ph.D. level researchers in materials engineering. 23 AT A GLANCE One-Liner: Carbon Upcycling UCLA captures CO2 in scalable, drop-in construction materials and products Location: Los Angeles, CA, USA Vertical: CO2-to-Concrete Corporate Status: In process Funding Needs: $2.5M Funding Stage: Late Seed/Series A Customers: Construction sector (cement and concrete), power sector (coal and natural gas generators) Tech Stage: Lab pilot XPRIZE Test Site: Wyoming Integrated Test Center Contact: Dr. Gaurav Sant, Founder, gsant@ucla.eduPDF Image | Carbon Filalist Team Deck
