White Paper: Industrial Mineralization
Repurposing Industrial Waste into Durable Climate Value
The world has a tough equation to crack: Mountains of waste on the ground. Gigatonnes of CO2 in the sky.
What if the two wrongs could make a right?
In this paper, we dive into Industrial Mineralization (IMin), a carbon dioxide removal (CDR) pathway that leverages existing industrial infrastructure and repurposes alkaline industrial waste streams such as mine tailings and steel slag to capture and permanently store atmospheric CO2. It is a pathway to durable, verifiable, gigatonne-scale CDR, transforming liabilities into assets, and waste into repair.
Key highlights:
- IMin harnesses the scale of heavy industry by leveraging their operational expertise, logistics, infrastructure, waste and byproducts.
- IMin is durable and verifiable, with low resource intensity. By integrating at existing industrial sites, it reduces upfront capex and the need for additional land.
- For sectors such as mining, steel, cement and legacy power generation, IMin is a multi-billion-dollar opportunity: introducing new revenue streams, improving carbon footprints and delivering tangible co-benefits.
