About carbon-nanofiber and Bergen Carbon Solution
Carbon-nanofiber (CNF) is a high value product, lighter than plastic, stronger than steel and leads electricity better than copper, and is applied to a wide range of consumer and industrial products, from energy storage to protective clothing. The CNF is made by using modular production units that are based on two 40 feet containers stacked on top of each other with two reactors (4 crucibles each). Each production unit can produce about 6.5 tonnes of CNF annually out of 30 tonnes of CO2.
The production method and technology have been verified by DNV-GL, and Bergen Carbon Solution has been producing CNF at their test facility since summer 2020. The company has developed an energy efficient, carbon negative production method, to produce CNF out of CO2, using only renewable energy and with O2 as the only bi-product and thus Bergen Carbon Solutions calls it green carbon-nanofiber.
