About Remora

Remora Carbon is a startup that operates in the environmental technology market, specifically focusing on reducing carbon emissions from Class 8 tractors, a type of heavy-duty truck. Their innovative device, which can be easily attached to the truck's aftertreatment system, acts as a large filter that uses carbon scrubbing technology to capture CO2 from the truck's exhaust. This captured CO2 is then compressed and stored in onboard tanks.

The device is designed to be user-friendly and efficient. If the tanks fill up before the driver can offload the captured CO2, the device will automatically bypass, allowing the truck to continue operating without interruption. The device is also partially powered by the truck's exhaust heat, which minimizes its impact on the truck's fuel economy.

The offloading process is designed to be quick and convenient. Drivers can offload the captured CO2 by connecting the device to an offload tank with a hose. For round trips, Remora Carbon installs offload tanks at customers' distribution centers, and for long-haul routes, offload tanks are being introduced at truck stops. Once an offload tank is full, Remora Carbon collects the high-purity, liquid CO2 and delivers it to end-users or sequesters it underground in an EPA-certified well.

Remora Carbon's business model is centered around providing a practical solution for reducing carbon emissions in the trucking industry. Their revenue is likely generated from the sale or lease of their devices, as well as from the collection and delivery of captured CO2.
