Product

Lime|loop is a chemical heat battery.

It stores energy in chemical bonds, not as a hot mass. That is how it delivers 700–900°C process heat around the clock, captures pure CO₂ in the same cycle, and runs on a smaller grid connection than a conventional heat battery.

How it works

The thermochemical cycle in three stages.

01

Charge: calcination

CaCO₃ + heat → CaO + CO₂

During cheap off-peak grid hours, electricity heats the sorbent to ~900°C. CaCO₃ breaks down into CaO and a stream of pure CO₂. Energy is stored chemically, with no thermal losses while idle.

02

Discharge: carbonation

CaO + CO₂ → CaCO₃ + heat

On demand, CO₂ is reintroduced. The exothermic carbonation reaction releases 700–900°C process heat continuously, straight into your existing steam or air loops.

03

Capture: CO₂ revenue

99.99% food-grade CO₂

The released CO₂ during charging is high-purity and pipeline-ready. Sell to an off-taker, use it on-site, or store it. A second revenue stream that subsidises the heat asset.
