Industrial carbon recovery · Calgary, Alberta

Industrial CO₂, converted into solid carbon.

Global C60 installs and operates carbon conversion units at industrial sites. The CO₂ in your emission stream becomes solid carbon for industrial markets, starting with a carbon black equivalent, and you receive a monthly record of how much CO₂ was removed.

Validation under way Validation and verification of the technology is under way, and discussions for first deployments are planned.

What we do

What Global C60 does

Global C60 Inc. is a Calgary company that removes CO₂ from industrial emission streams and turns it into carbon products. We use carbon conversion technology licensed from Elemental Air.

Global C60 installs, operates and maintains the units, removes the carbon from site, and reports the results to you every month. Clients can host a unit at their site, or contract us to remove CO₂ on a per-tonne basis.

Who we work with

Oil and gas operators
Gas-fired power producers, including those supplying data centres
Renewable natural gas (RNG) operators
Heavy industrial facilities
Any site that emits large volumes of CO₂

What comes out

Less CO₂ leaving your stack
A monthly, documented record of the CO₂ removed
Solid carbon that is sold into industrial markets
Carbon credits created from the CO₂ removed

How we work with you

Ways to work with us

Model 1

Host a unit

Global C60 places a unit at your site and runs it. You provide space, power and access to your flue gas stream.

Model 2

Carbon-as-a-Service (CaaS)

You contract Global C60 to remove CO₂ from your emissions on a per-tonne basis. You pay for the tonnes removed, which lowers your CO₂ emissions and your exposure to carbon taxes and compliance costs.

How a deployment works

First conversation
You tell us about your emission source, the volumes involved and the site.
Site and stream review
We look at your flue gas flow rate and CO₂ concentration, available power, space and truck access.
Agreement
We agree the service model, site access and the monthly reporting you will receive.
Installation
We place the unit and a small, modular, temporary building on site, and connect to your flue gas stream and power.
Operation and reporting
We run the unit, truck the carbon off site, and send you a CO₂ reduction report every month.

What your site provides

Space for the unit
Room for a small, modular, temporary building
Access to power
A connection to your flue gas stream
Access for trucks

What you receive

A monthly CO₂ reduction report for the emission stream
A unit installed, operated and maintained by Global C60
CO₂ removed from your stream, which is converted into solid carbon and creates carbon credits

What the monthly report showsPer emission stream

Field	What it tells you
Emission volume	Total flue gas treated in the month
Flow rate	Rate of the emission stream through the unit
Inlet CO₂	CO₂ concentration of the stream as it enters
CO₂ removed	Total CO₂ removed from that stream in the month

Benefits

What it means for an emitter

Lower compliance cost

Carbon pricing in Canada, and in several US states and programs, puts a cost on each tonne of CO₂ a facility emits. CO₂ removed from your stream by a Global C60 unit is measured and documented, which can reduce what you owe or need to offset.

Documented reductions

The monthly report gives your environment and regulatory teams measured data for compliance filings and sustainability reporting.

Pay for results

Under a Carbon-as-a-Service (CaaS) contract you pay per tonne of CO₂ removed. Global C60 installs, operates and maintains the unit. Your site provides space, power and access.

Waste becomes a product

Today the CO₂ in your emissions is a waste stream. Global C60 turns that waste into solid carbon that is sold to industrial buyers, instead of being released to the air or stored underground.

Reduced at the source

CO₂ is converted where it is produced. It is not captured and sent off site for sequestration, so your facility does not need a connection to CO₂ pipeline and storage infrastructure. Modular units can significantly reduce the cost of carbon compliance.

Other emissions reduced

Along with CO₂, a Global C60 unit reduces sulphur oxides (SO_x), nitrogen oxides (NO_x) and other carbon oxides such as carbon monoxide in the emission stream. It does not remove hydrogen sulphide (H₂S).

Alberta facilities

Managing TIER obligations

Facilities regulated under Alberta's Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction (TIER) Regulation must meet an emissions benchmark or cover the gap with fund payments, credits or offsets. A Global C60 unit removes CO₂ at the source and gives you monthly measured data, which can help you manage your TIER obligations and plan for tightening benchmarks. Global C60 is in discussions with the TIER program on recognizing CO₂ removed by our process for credit.

Under investigation

Methane-as-a-Service (MaaS)

Global C60 is investigating how to capture methane that is not combusted in engines and heaters, and methane redirected from flaring, and convert it into solid carbon. If you operate engines, heaters or flares and would like to be part of that work, register your interest.

Carbon products

The carbon we produce

Every Global C60 unit produces solid carbon. We are starting with a domestically produced carbon equivalent to carbon black. Lab-assessed specifications for our carbon nanotubes and fullerenes will be published once the current validation work is complete.

Carbon black equivalent

Available for discussion now

A fine black carbon powder, produced in North America from captured CO₂, for use where carbon black is used today. Because it is a direct alternative to an existing material, it is expected to need less extensive qualification testing than a new specialty material before it can be added to, or replace, a current carbon black supply.

Industries that use carbon black

Tires and rubber products, including belts, hoses, seals and mouldings
Plastics and masterbatch, for colour, UV protection and antistatic grades
Printing inks and toners
Paints and coatings
Wire and cable jacketing
Conductive additives for batteries and electronics
Construction materials, as a pigment for concrete and roofing

Single-wall

Multi-wall, end view

Carbon nanotubes

Specification to follow

A layer of carbon atoms rolled into a seamless tube a few nanometres across and many times longer than it is wide. Nanotubes are very strong for their weight and conduct electricity well.

Single-wall nanotubes are one layer thick. They give the highest conductivity at very low loadings and are used in battery electrodes, conductive films and electronics.

Multi-wall nanotubes are several tubes nested inside each other. They are more robust and lower in cost, and are used as conductive additives in lithium-ion batteries, in polymer composites, antistatic plastics and coatings.

Fullerenes (C₆₀ and C₇₀)

Specification to follow

Closed, hollow molecules made only of carbon. C₆₀, the molecule our company is named after, has 60 carbon atoms arranged in 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons, the same pattern as a soccer ball. C₇₀ is a slightly elongated version with 70 atoms.

Used in: organic solar cells and electronics, lubricant and polymer additives, cosmetics, and materials research.

Why buy carbon from Global C60

Made from CO₂ captured from industrial emissions

Produced in North America

A supply source outside China for buyers who need to document material origin and carbon footprint

Carbon buyers and partners

We are looking for carbon buyers and partners

Global Carbon Marketing (GCM) is a separate company being established to sell the carbon produced by Global C60 units. GCM will manage grade, volume and quality so buyers receive consistent material. It will launch with its own name and website.

Until GCM is operating, all carbon inquiries come to Global C60 directly. Tell us what you use, in what volumes and to what specification, and we will follow up as material and lab data become available.

We want to hear from

Tire and rubber product manufacturers
Plastics compounders and masterbatch producers
Ink, toner and pigment producers
Battery material producers and dispersion formulators
Polymer and composite compounders
Coatings, lubricant and refractory manufacturers
Research groups and specialty chemical distributors

Where we are

Validation and verification of the technology is under way. Discussions with host sites for first deployments are planned, and we are talking with investors about funding them. If you would like to be part of either, register your interest.
