Direct Oxyfire Carbon Capture Test at the University of Calgary – Occam Technologies Inc.

Direct Oxyfire Carbon Capture Test at the University of Calgary – Occam Technologies Inc.

This report presents the results of laboratory testing conducted through the NGIF Emissions Testing Centre (ETC) Program at the University of Calgary to showcase a novel internal combustion strategy enabling direct oxyfire carbon capture within a natural gas engine system. The purpose of this testing was to compare the DOCC operations against Air Mode for engine efficiency, gas emissions, and methane slip.

The testing confirmed that Occam Technologies’s DOCC process is viable within internal combustion engines, with CO₂ effectively serving as both a carrier gas and a thermal energy sink to replace nitrogen gas. Future testing will focus on larger engines and alternative fuel systems to improve NOx reduction and assess the scalability of DOCC performance.

 

At NGIF, we invest in companies who are leading in the development of clean technologies for energy and who have the potential to demonstrate significant and quantifiable environmental and economic returns.
