capex required from you
ICODOS funds, builds, owns, and operates the plant end-to-end — you provide access to your CO₂ stream, not capital.
For CO₂ Providers
Gas Cleaning & Upgrading
Turn your CO₂ emissions into a long-term revenue stream. ICODOS designs, builds, funds, and operates a modular e-methanol plant at your site — with no capital outlay and no disruption to your operations.
Biogas plants
The case for hosting an ICODOS plant
>20yrs
of recurring revenue
A long-term, offtake-style contract pays you for metered CO₂ — typically for 20 years or more.
>28M€
in funding secured
Backed by private investors and public grants, including Horizon Europe — a funded company, not just a pitch.
CO₂ source
feedstock flexibility
Our capture runs on raw, unpurified off-gas — a wide range of CO₂ streams and compositions, from dilute flue gas to concentrated biogenic sources.
S–L
size flexibility
We build plants in multiple sizes — from Plant S to Plant L — matched to the volume of your CO₂ stream.
If you emit CO₂, we probably want to talk
ICODOS captures CO₂ at its source and converts it into certified green e-methanol on site. Three types of point sources we work with:
Biogas & Wastewater
From agricultural biogas to sewage-sludge digestion at wastewater treatment plants, ICODOS captures the CO₂ already in your biogas stream — cutting operating costs by an estimated 10–30% for wastewater treatment hosts, at no cost to you.
Biomass & Waste-to-Energy
Biomass combustion, combined heat and power, pulp and paper black-liquor boilers, and waste-to-energy plants all produce a steady, concentrated CO₂ stream ICODOS can capture and convert on site.
Industrial Point Sources
Cement, steel, refineries, and other chemical-process emitters can host an ICODOS plant too. Our technology is built for flexibility, not purity — it runs on raw, non-purified offgas.
Does your site qualify?
These are the general criteria we screen against — exact numbers scale with plant size. If you're roughly in this range, it's worth a conversation.
CO₂ stream
3,000–50,000+ t/year
From biogenic sources, typically ≥8% vol CO₂ concentration in the offgas — our technology can run on as little as 2% vol.
Land
~2,500–10,000 m²
Adjacent or nearby industrial land, ideally within about 1 km of your CO₂ source.
Utilities
Grid + water access
A grid connection scaled to plant size, access to renewable power, and water supply — tens of thousands of m³/year for larger plants.
Commitment
10+ years
Stable source operation (300+ days/year) and willingness to provide long-term access to your CO₂ stream.
Two plant sizes, matched to your CO₂ stream
Plant S
3,000–5,000 t/year CO₂ processed
Our entry-level co-located plant — sized for a single mid-size CO₂ source, like one biogas facility or industrial site.
Plant M
30,000–50,000 t/year CO₂ processed
Our large-scale co-located plant — sized for a major industrial CO₂ source or an aggregated cluster of sources.
From validated pilot to host partnerships
Every stage of our process has already been demonstrated — backed by more than €28M in private and public funding, including Horizon Europe. Hosting an ICODOS plant is a scale-up of what's running today, not a bet on what might work.
2019–2023
Lab & pilot validation
The patented hybrid process was proven at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT).
2024–2025
Mannheim 001
The world's first fully integrated, automated, dynamically operated e-methanol plant — built and validated end-to-end with KIT and EBS Mannheim, running on a real industrial CO₂ source.
2026
POSEIDON demonstration
A 15× scale-up toward commercial volumes, backed by a €10M Horizon Europe grant.
Toward 2028
First host partnerships
Our first Plant S-class commercial projects are advancing toward final investment decision in Germany and Spain — early conversations are already shaping which sites secure a partnership first.
2030s
Global, standardized roll-out
Plant S and Plant M replicate globally, with a larger Plant L already in planning — building toward more than 5 million tonnes of annual e-methanol capacity.
A direct, transparent process
No commitment, no financial risk, no wasted time — a structured process designed to give you a clear answer.
Step 1
Screening call
About an hour of your time. We review your CO₂ source and site — at ICODOS's own cost and risk, with no commitment required.
Step 2
Data exchange & feasibility study
Under NDA, you share basic site and CO₂ data. ICODOS fully funds the mass-and-energy balance, CAPEX estimate, and feasibility study — free to you.
Step 3
Memorandum of understanding
If the evaluation is positive, we formalize the exploration and agree on a development model together.
Step 4
Construction & long-term partnership
ICODOS funds, builds, and commissions the plant. Recurring revenue begins — and continues for 20+ years.
Built to take on the capital and the risk
01
We take on the capital and the risk
ICODOS funds, builds, owns, and operates every plant. You provide access to your CO₂ stream — not capital, and not operational burden.
02
A process built for flexibility, not purity
Our patented hybrid process runs on raw, non-purified offgas with as little as 2% CO₂ by volume, so your site doesn't need to change to fit our technology.
03
Modular plants, faster to revenue
Pre-fabricated, standardized Plant S and Plant M designs cut typical project timelines by more than 12 months, so your recurring revenue starts sooner.
Frequently asked questions
What does ICODOS ask of us?
Access to your CO₂ stream and the site data needed for engineering and permitting. ICODOS funds, builds, owns, and operates the plant — there's no capital outlay or operational change required on your side.
What do you look for in a CO₂ source?
Sources like biogas plants, wastewater treatment plants, biomass and waste-to-energy facilities, and other industrial emitters — typically with a CO₂ concentration of 8% or more by volume, though our technology can process streams with as little as 2%.
What do we get in return?
A long-term, offtake-style contract that pays you for metered CO₂, typically for 20 years or more, with no disruption to your existing operations.
How long before we know if our site qualifies?
A screening call and a fully ICODOS-funded feasibility study — typically weeks, not months — tell you whether your site is a fit, at no cost or commitment to you.
Do you work with wastewater treatment plants specifically?
Yes — wastewater treatment plants are one of our core partner segments. Beyond the CO₂ offtake revenue, hosting an ICODOS plant can reduce a plant's own operating costs by an estimated 10–30%.
Can we invest in or eventually own the plant?
Ownership structures are discussed case by case — some partners choose to co-invest in or acquire their plant over time. Let's talk about what fits your site.
