New Technology Changes Unhealthy Workplace Air Into Fuel

Soletair Power announced the world’s first economically profitable power to fuels production process, combining the air you breath out with energy to produce fuel. The innovation will make public and workspaces healthier and employees more productive while also taking climate-altering carbon out of the environment.

Soletair Power, based in Finland, has designed, built and installed a ground-breaking air filtration and purification system that not only removes harmful carbon-dioxide (C02) from the air, it turns it into usable fuel. Soletair’s solution positions the company as an early to-market leader at the intersection of three major segments, workplace health and wellness, business productivity and carbon capture utilization, a market that analysts have estimated in excess of $1 trillion.

  • WORK HEALTH The Covid-19 pandemic has heightened business need for healthy workplaces, especially in air quality and filtration. One expert recently directly linked removing carbon dioxide from public spaces as a way to mitigate the threat of virus spread, a practice governments have been following worldwide. As economies restart and recover, improving ventilation and air quality systems will continue to be a major investment focus.
  • BUSINESS PRODUCTIVITY Decades of studies have shown that increases in C02, even through normal breathing in public and workspaces, can significantly reduce cognitive function by 20% or more. Actively removing carbon dioxide from work areas has been proven to increase awareness, workplace performance and productivity.
  • CARBON CAPTURE UTILIZATION Carbon capture and sequestration is a developing technique to mitigate climate change and a growing industry which is forecast to evolve into a carbon capture utilization model, transforming the collected carbon into needed products. The Soletair Power solution uses a chemical conversion process to turn carbon captured from the air along with energy and water into useable fuel or direct energy.

“This is not science fiction, it’s science,” said ​Dr Cyril Bajamundi Soletair Power. “It’s not something we can do, it’s something we are doing. We built it. It’s working, right now in Finland, taking carbon out of the air and generating fuel — a triple-whammy of heath, efficiency and significant environmental impact.”
