Mission Zero Technologies Ltd is a London-based cleantech company founded in 2020, specializing in electrochemical direct air capture (DAC) technology. The company develops modular, energy-efficient systems that extract CO₂ from ambient air using a water-based solvent and electrodialysis, producing high-purity CO₂ for permanent storage or utilization without requiring heat.
Its plug-and-play DAC units support applications in carbon removal and circular carbon economies, including sustainable aviation fuels (eSAF), carbon-negative building materials, and sequestration. Key deployments include the UK's first commercial DAC plant at the University of Sheffield (2023, 50 tCO₂/year for SAF), a facility with O.C.O Technology for CO₂-mineralized aggregates (2025, 250 tCO₂/year), and a Canadian project with Deep Sky for underground storage (2025, 250 tCO₂/year).
Mission Zero contributes DAC technology to initiatives like Project Starling, a UK eSAF project targeting 25,000 tonnes/year of synthetic hydrocarbons from captured CO₂ by 2031. The firm has raised over £21 million in Series A funding and focuses on scalable decarbonization for hard-to-abate sectors.
