Biochar highlighted at the Carbon Capture Technology Expo Europe

Mota Engil ATIV and Mota-Engil BCircle participated in the world’s largest event dedicated to discussing the growing role of carbon capture, utilization, and storage in the transition to a net-zero carbon economy.

The Carbon Capture Technology Expo Europe 2024 took place in Hamburg on October 23 and 24, attracting over 15,000 visitors over the two days, becoming a key meeting point to foster growth in this sector.

This exhibition is a gathering of leading experts from around the world who take the opportunity to discuss recent advances in new carbon capture, storage, and transportation technologies, unique ways of utilizing CO2 to produce net-zero emission fuels, as well as other manufacturing processes.

For Mota-Engil ATIV, it was an excellent opportunity to establish connections, discuss, and explore one of the proven carbon capture solutions designed to reduce emissions and support a more sustainable future.

Permitiu apresentar o Biochar ao mundo do “carbono tecnológico”, sendo amplamente reconhecido como um produto de alto valor agregado, não apenas pelas suas características químicas e físicas, mas também por ser uma fonte duradoura de sequestro e armazenamento de carbono.

The result of the pyrolysis of organic matter, it is a versatile material, extremely rich in organic carbon, and highly resistant to microbiological degradation. These benefits, while sequestering carbon for long periods, make it an essential tool in the fight against climate change.


The levels of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere have risen significantly, and the fight against climate change is one of the greatest global challenges, requiring immediate action. Many industrial sectors are now seeking new technologies to help achieve net-zero emissions targets.

The Carbon Capture Technology Expo Europe has firmly established itself as a must-attend event, driving industry collaboration and progress toward a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.

Following this year’s success, the exhibition will expand to a three-day format in 2025, scheduled for October 21, 22, and 23.
