About CAPHENIA GmbH
editCAPHENIA GmbH is an innovative company dedicated to the development and production of renewable, carbon-neutral fuels. Based in Bernau am Chiemsee and with additional locations in Frankfurt am Main, CAPHENIA sets new standards in the efficiency of CO₂ conversion technology. The company utilizes advanced processes to transform CO₂ emissions from industrial processes into valuable synthetic fuels. This technology enables an impressive reduction of CO₂ emissions by up to 92% compared to conventional fossil fuels.
Mission and Values
editThe mission of CAPHENIA is to convert CO₂ emissions into valuable resources, thereby making a significant contribution to combating climate change. The company aims to drive decarbonization across various industries and provide sustainable alternatives to fossil fuel consumption. CAPHENIA firmly believes in the power of collaboration and promotes partnerships between governments, businesses, and research institutions to advance innovations in sustainable fuel production.
Technology and Innovation
editAt the heart of CAPHENIA's technological innovation is the Plasma Boudouard Reactor (PBR), which combines three steps in a seamless process. In the plasma zone, methane is broken down into carbon and hydrogen. In the Boudouard zone, carbon reacts with CO₂ to form carbon monoxide, while in the heterogeneous water-gas shift zone, the remaining carbon reacts with steam to produce additional carbon monoxide and hydrogen. This unique technology allows for flexible control over the composition of the resulting synthesis gas and positions CAPHENIA at the forefront of the renewable fuel industry.
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editCAPHENIA is committed to minimizing environmental impact through innovative solutions. The company's sustainable fuels significantly contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and promote climate-neutral mobility. CAPHENIA's technology provides renewable fuels for the aviation industry with an efficiency of 86% and a CO₂ reduction of over 90%. These advancements support airlines in achieving their climate goals and enabling sustainable flying.
Partnerships and Collaboration
editCAPHENIA works closely with partners such as ALLGUTH GmbH and Bilfinger Region DACH to advance the development of pioneering technologies. These partnerships are crucial for the implementation of the Power-and-Biogas-to-Liquid technology and the promotion of innovations in sustainable fuels.
Future Vision
editCAPHENIA is on the path to revolutionizing the energy and mobility landscape and making a significant contribution to achieving climate neutrality. With the upcoming commissioning of the pilot plant 'GERMANY I' in Frankfurt, the company will further advance its vision of renewable fuels for climate-neutral mobility. Together with its partners, CAPHENIA is shaping a greener, more sustainable future.
