Partnering With Biomass Power Plants to Transform Waste Into Valuable Products Through Advanced Carbon Capture Technology
There are hundreds of biomass power plants operating across the United States, burning wood waste and agricultural residue to generate electricity. These facilities represent a largely untapped opportunity at the intersection of energy infrastructure and carbon markets.
These plants produce biogenic CO₂ — carbon recently absorbed from the atmosphere by living plants, not ancient fossil carbon. Without capture, this CO₂ re-enters the atmosphere, leaving measurable value unrealized.
Wood waste and agricultural residue burned to generate electricity at existing power plants across the US.
BEX will deploy technology that intercepts biogenic CO₂ from the flue gas stream before it enters the atmosphere, then liquefies it for transport.
Captured liquid CO₂ is sold into established industrial markets: carbonation, refrigeration, and food processing.
A vertically integrated model that creates value at every stage of the carbon capture lifecycle.
BEX identifies and partners with existing biomass power plant operators burning wood waste or agricultural residue. We integrate with their operations — not against them.
We install proven carbon capture and liquefaction technology directly at the plant. The system captures CO₂ from the flue gas stream before it enters the atmosphere, and liquefies it for transport and sale.
Captured liquid CO₂ is sold into the food and beverage industry for use in carbonation, refrigeration, and processing — a large, established, and chronically undersupplied market.
Captured CO₂ becomes a revenue-generating product sold directly into established industrial markets, turning an emissions stream into a valuable commodity.

Tons of liquid CO₂ sold annually in the US — a market chronically short of domestic supply
The domestic food-grade liquid CO₂ market is a multi-billion dollar industry that is chronically undersupplied. Several major CO₂ suppliers have exited the market in recent years, leaving food and beverage producers — and the broader industrial sector — searching for reliable domestic sources. Prices have risen significantly as a result.
BEX Carbon is positioned to fill that gap. By capturing CO₂ directly from biomass combustion and delivering it as food and beverage-grade liquid CO₂, we become a new, reliable, domestic source of supply at a moment when the market urgently needs more of it.
Three forces have converged to create a narrow and compelling opportunity window.
The food and beverage CO₂ market faces a structural supply shortage, driving prices up and demand for reliable, domestic suppliers to new highs. BEX Carbon enters a market where demand substantially exceeds available supply.
Carbon capture technology has matured significantly. Equipment that was experimental a decade ago now operates reliably at commercial scale — there are more than 50 commercial carbon capture and liquefaction facilities operating across the US today — delivering proven performance that de-risks deployment.
BEX Carbon was built to move fast in this window. We have the partnerships, the technology relationships, and the operational model to deploy at scale in the near term.
BEX targets amine-based carbon capture and liquefaction systems — a proven, commercially mature technology with a strong track record at industrial scale.
Amine based post-combustion carbon capture has been deployed at scale in commercial operations globally. It selectively absorbs CO₂ from flue gas using liquid amine solvents, producing a high-purity gaseous CO₂ stream ready for compression and liquefaction.
After absorption, CO₂ is stripped from the solvent, purified, compressed, and cooled to a food-grade liquid state. The result is a market-ready product that meets the purity standards required by the food and beverage industry.
Each installation is designed and engineered to maximize efficiency, taking into account plant flue gas volume, composition, site constraints, and site opportunities. There is no off-the-shelf deployment — every project reflects the host facility's actual operating conditions.
Built by practitioners with deep experience in energy infrastructure, project finance, and environmental markets.
