CarboCycle
CarboCycle developed a Columbia-patented technology that converts organic waste into lipids and oils for use in consumer goods like soaps and detergents. The process greatly reduces greenhouse gas emissions by closing the carbon loop, localizing the production and distribution of the materials used in cleaning products, and limiting the need for palm oil plantations (a driving force behind deforestation).
