Amsterdam-based startup Brineworks has recently secured $2.2 million in funding, with VC firm Pale blue dot leading the investment. Their seawater electrolyser technology not only excels in CO2 extraction but also produces green hydrogen at a low cost. By offering industry-leading CO2 extraction below $100 per ton, Brineworks is setting a new standard in sustainability and affordability. This innovation provides a dual-output process that not only generates revenue but also ensures clean, decentralized energy production that is immune to geopolitical conflicts over fossil fuel supplies. Brineworks' development in seawater electrolysis paves the way for large-scale e-Fuel production and the decarbonization of heavily polluting sectors such as maritime and aviation. Compared to existing CO2 capture methods, Brineworks' approach stands out for its sustainability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, making the scale-up of e-Fuel in maritime and aviation industries more feasible. The recent funding will enable Brineworks to enhance its technical capabilities and launch its first pilot project. The positive reception from investors and industry experts underscores the potential of Brineworks' technology to revolutionize sustainable energy production and contribute significantly to global decarbonization efforts.
