Our Technology Journey

From research breakthrough to DTC's next phase of industrial development.

CARGEN® began as a research-led carbon-conversion concept and has progressed through laboratory validation, material characterization, and increasingly larger-scale testing. DTC, in partnership with DTI, is now advancing this technology toward industrial deployment by adapting it to carbon-rich industrial streams, improving carbon-nanotube performance and consistency, integrating the process with industrial operations, and developing carbon materials into high-value products for future commercial applications.

Foundation

CARGEN® research

The technology was created to convert carbon-containing gases into solid carbon materials and syngas, establishing the scientific foundation for a different route to carbon utilization.

Validation
