Pipelines

CO₂ to product

Flanders is emitting approximately 65 Mton of carbon dioxide or CO₂ per year, half of which produced by point sources. These emissions must be lowered to prevent climate change.

CO₂ pipeline

Water 'fit for use'

Industrial water use can account for up to 57% of the total freshwater consumption. CAPTURE researchers aim to develop new technologies to make the most use of every drop of water.

Water pipeline

Plastics to resource

Plastics are a key material within the circular economy. Their diverse composition and processing techniques make them both versatile and challenging at end-of-life.

Pillars

Research

Key of CAPTURE is the clustering of expertise, infrastructure and stakeholders in thematic pipelines, developing solutions for the recovery of water, CO2 and plastics.

Research

Training

Excellent research and new insights should find their way to society. An ideal way of doing so is via training. Are you interested in joining a seminar, or do you prefer to follow an online self-paced MOOC?

Training

Valorization

CAPTURE contributes to the acceleration of the flow of knowledge and technologies towards industry and society and to the valorization of excellent research.
