Point-source carbon capture for heavy industry

Overview

Nuada provides point-source carbon capture for heavy industries, using a vertical integration approach to deliver CO2 filtration systems that remove emissions at the source. The technology combines solid adsorbents called Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) with vacuum swing adsorption, creating a heatless, solvent-free process that pulls CO2 from industrial exhaust by lowering the pressure rather than applying heat. Energy-efficient filtration machines are designed for hard-to-abate sectors, helping industrial emitters reach Net Zero targets while keeping operating costs lower. Unlike systems that rely on heat or solvents, Nuada’s approach reduces energy use and capital costs, enabling mass adoption in industry. The company’s goal is to decarbonize heavy industry by providing scalable, lower-cost carbon capture solutions that integrate materials and systems end-to-end.

Simplify's take

What believers are saying

  • The 77-project EU Innovation Fund round selected Nuada from 358 applicants.
  • Idex and Nuada announced a July 2026 partnership for 10,000 tonnes annual biogenic CO2.
  • A successful Ferrybridge pilot and SCALA deployment can unlock broader European industrial retrofits.

What critics are saying

  • SCALA lacks a commissioning date, delaying proof before 2027 commercial contracts.
  • AdSpire still faces first-commercial-scale reliability risk at Idex's Kogeban plant.
  • If SCALA underperforms, Nuada's 2012 MOF Technologies rebrand becomes an existential credibility hit.

What makes Nuada unique

  • Nuada's AdSpire uses MOFs plus vacuum swing adsorption, avoiding solvents and heat.
  • On 27 October 2026, Nuada won €14.6 million for SCALA in France.
  • Nuada's fully electric, retrofit-friendly systems target cement, biomass, and waste-to-energy sites.
