Japan: Taiheiyo Cement and the University of Tokyo have patented a carbon capture system based on a new carbon fixation method. The method passes CO2-bearing gas over 40mm granules of a hardened cementitious material at 75 - 100°C. The granules then fix the CO2 from the stream to themselves, for utilisation or storage.
