Sirona Technologies

TLDR

Sirona Technologies is a Brussels-based cleantech startup that raised EUR 6.37M to develop and commercialize direct air capture technology for removing CO2 from the atmosphere.

Overview

Founded by Thoralf Gutierrez and based in Brussels, Sirona Technologies works on direct air capture, a technology that mechanically or chemically removes carbon dioxide from ambient air for permanent storage or industrial use. While plant-based carbon removal is well established, direct air capture offers the ability to remove CO2 from any location, independent of land availability.

The EUR 6.37M raise will fund development of Sirona's capture technology and early commercial deployments. Direct air capture is an expensive technology today, and companies in this space are working to bring costs down through engineering improvements and scale.

Sirona operates in a space that has attracted significant European and global investment as the urgency of carbon removal solutions becomes clearer in the context of climate targets.
