BOSTON--Decarbontek, Inc., a leader in carbon capture and removal technologies, today announced the commercial availability of DCF-1 (De-Carbon Framework -1), a groundbreaking, low-cost, high-performance metal-organic framework (MOF) designed for scalable carbon capture. Available now at kilogram scale, DCF-1 marks a major step toward affordable, industrial-grade carbon management.
MOFs are porous crystalline materials composed of metal ions and organic linkers, renowned for their exceptionally high surface area and tunable pore structures. They are among the most promising materials for carbon capture due to their ability to selectively adsorb CO₂ with greater efficiency and lower energy requirements than conventional methods. However, their widespread adoption in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) has been hindered by prohibitively high synthesis and processing costs—until now.

DCF-1 is synthesized using zinc oxide and citric acid in water—a safe, sustainable, and patent-pending method developed by Decarbontek. This innovative material combines high CO₂ uptake efficiency with a non-toxic, low-cost production process, making it ideal for point-source carbon removal, direct air capture, and industrial decarbonization. Zinc oxide and citric acid are each produced in quantities exceeding several million tons annually, thereby mitigating concerns related to supply chain reliability.
"With the launch of DCF-1, we’re setting a new standard for carbon capture materials," said Dr. Yong Ding, Founder and CEO of Decarbontek. "It’s cost-effective, easy to manufacture, and highly efficient—making carbon capture accessible across industries. We anticipate DCF-1 will cost approximately 10/kg at full-scale production, comparable to common molecular sieves."
DCF-1 is available immediately in kilogram-scale quantities, enabling pilot projects, academic research, and commercial deployments seeking sustainable and scalable carbon capture solutions.
