Carbon Challenge for the Maritime Industry

The maritime industry, responsible for 90% of global trade is facing increased pressure from new international regulations, customer demands, and shareholder scrutiny to cut down greenhouse gas emissions.

However, despite the need being urgent for decarbonization, there are still few viable solutions.

Future fuels are still many years away from becoming practical and available; besides existing measures of efficiency are not enough to reach the carbon objectives of the sector.

Seabound: A Game-Changing Solution

Based in London, Seabound is a carbon capture technology company that was established by Alisha Fredriksson and Roujia Wen in 2021.

Seabound has an ocean-ready carbon capture solution that changes everything on which up to 95% of CO₂ emissions can be intercepted from ships.

In their approach, CO₂ is altered into solid carbonate pebbles that can be conveniently offloaded and stored.

This eases logistics while also providing options for turning them into fuel or recycling them.

 How It Works: A Simple Three-Step Process

  • We Fit: The Seabound’s system fits within the existing ship infrastructure perfectly.
  • We Capture: During voyages, this process converts emitted CO₂ into stable carbonate pebbles.
  • We Offload & Store: At key ports, these carbonates can then be taken off for recycling or sequestering so as not to disrupt shipping activities much.

Mission & Vision at Seabound

Seabound wants to give ship owners a pragmatic alternative right now to address the issue of their emissions.

Not only does this help companies meet regulatory requirements but it also keeps them ahead of competition in a changing field by tackling maritime logistics’ most critical decarbonization needs.

Founders’ Background and Expertise

The two co-founders of Seabound—Alisha Fredriksson and Roujia Wen—are highly experienced.

Alisha used to work with Liquid Wind, the leading maritime electro-fuel start-up, and has a background in launching global climate programs.

In addition to that, as the CTO Roujia consolidates this with technical expertise that ensures Seabound’s solutions are technologically robust.

Industry Recognition and Partnerships

Due to Seabound’s, strategic partnerships with Lowercarbon Capital, Eastern Pacific Shipping and Y Combinator among others, it is beginning to attract attention and investment.

Featured by Forbes, TechCrunch, and Business Insider among other prestigious publications in which their cutting-edge technology has been highlighted, these reports show that they can transform carbon capture for the maritime industry.

Seabound is at the forefront of decarbonizing shipping operations and provides an immediate practical way to reduce CO₂ emissions.

As such, their unique carbon capturing technology enables ship owners to comply with regulations thus gaining a competitive advantage over other players in this sector.

Seabound's commitment to sustainability and proven results highlight its potential to make a significant impact on global shipping emissions.

With immediate environmental resolutions being sought out by the industry; this makes their technology very crucial in helping them attain a greener future status.
