Participation in the 6th CCU Industry-Academia-Government International Conference 2024

On October 11th, we participated in the 6th International Conference on CCU 2024, organized by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO). This conference has been held annually since 2019, and aims to further strengthen international collaboration in carbon recycling, a key technology for achieving carbon CCU. It is an international conference that presents the progress of Japan's efforts and brings together the wisdom of industry, academia, and government from around the world to discuss issues related to social implementation.

TBM participated in a panel discussion led by Executive Officer and CKO Nakamura and a poster session, where they introduced the development of "CR LIMEX," which utilizes CCU technology and uses CO2-derived calcium carbonate as a raw material, as well as efforts to demonstrate and implement CCU materials and products in society, including a comprehensive collaboration agreement concluded with Tagajo City on October 8th.
