The Circular Carbon Advantage: On-Site Decarbonization for Foundation Industries
Dr. Harriet Kildahl is the CTO and co-founder of PeroCycle, an early-stage climate-tech company pioneering closed-loop carbon recycling for heavy industry. A chemical engineer, she invented PeroCycle's core thermochemical process using double perovskite catalysts to split captured CO2 into usable carbon monoxide. This enables hard-to-abate sectors like steelmaking to continuously recycle emissions and reduce fossil fuel reliance.
Previously measuring carbon footprints for over 150 corporate clients, Harriet now leads PeroCycle's technical development and industrial scaling efforts.
The Circular Carbon Advantage: On-Site Decarbonization for Foundation Industries
A practical look at how on-site, closed-loop carbon recycling turns captured carbon dioxide into an economic resource, delivering modular, energy-efficient decarbonization for foundation industries such as steel.
- Unlocking resource efficiency by treating captured carbon dioxide as an economic resource rather than a waste disposal liability
- Integrating low-cost, on-site thermochemical conversion technology to transform carbon emissions into industrial resources within existing infrastructure
- Providing a modular, highly energy-efficient decarbonization pathway for foundation industries lacking immediate access to hydrogen
