Captivate Technology

Captivate Technology is a New Zealand startup company that develops advanced adsorbent technology, process engineering and simulation aimed at making gas separation and carbon capture more efficient. According to its official website, the company positions its technology around four core promises: better separation, better economics, more yield, and lower cost. It claims best-in-class selectivity of carbon dioxide over nitrogen and methane, which it says allows maximum output from the same gas stream. The company markets two main application areas under one technology platform. Captivate BIO is aimed at biogas upgrading, turning landfill gas, anaerobic digestion and wastewater biogas into more saleable biomethane with less capital and operating cost. Captivate CARBON is aimed at carbon capture, producing high-purity CO2 for pipeline, industrial or food-grade applications, with the goal of transforming an emissions and compliance cost into a revenue stream. Captivate describes its offering as a drop-in solution designed for systems that customers already have, emphasising easy integration, less equipment, lower energy use and lower operating expenditure by design. Its target markets include anaerobic digestion, wastewater treatment, agricultural biogas, landfill gas and renewable natural gas production. The company presents its technology as world-leading in performance, proven in the lab and ready for customer sites. It reports advantages including high methane recovery in biogas upgrading, a lower levelised cost compared with amine systems, and lower energy use compared with conventional adsorbents. As a startup, Captivate Technology is privately held and does not appear to be listed on a public exchange.

Captivate Technology is a New Zealand startup company. Public information about its founding date, founders and early history is limited; the company is known primarily through its official website and a Wikidata entry describing it as a New Zealand startup company. The company has built its offering around advanced adsorbent technology combined with process engineering and simulation, targeting gas separation and carbon capture applications. Its website presents the technology as a platform with two commercial opportunities: Captivate BIO for biogas upgrading and Captivate CARBON for carbon capture and CO2 utilisation. Captivate BIO is aimed at turning landfill gas, anaerobic digestion and wastewater biogas into more saleable biomethane with less capital and operating cost. Captivate CARBON is aimed at capturing high-purity CO2 for pipeline, industrial or food-grade applications, with the goal of transforming an emissions and compliance cost into a revenue stream. The company markets its technology as a drop-in solution designed for existing systems, emphasising easy integration, less equipment, lower energy use and lower operating expenditure. It reports advantages including high methane recovery in biogas upgrading, a lower levelised cost compared with amine systems, and lower energy use compared with conventional adsorbents. It describes its technology as world-leading in performance, proven in the lab and ready for customer sites. As a startup, Captivate Technology is privately held. No public listing, parent company or major ownership details are available in the supplied evidence.
