Use of biocarbons to withdraw and permanent store CO2.

About Carbonauten

Carbonauten, a German startup, is focused on reducing CO2 in our atmosphere through their innovative material made of wooden residues. Instead of emitting greenhouse gases while rotting, the wood is turned into carbon and combined with different binders. The resulting biomaterials can replace conventional plastics and building materials for various industries. In this way, one tonne of Carbonauten’s biomaterial can store an equivalent of more than 3 tonnes of CO2.
