- India’s first Integrated Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) Field Laboratory Facility was inaugurated at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay under Bharat Innovates 2026.
- The facility integrates carbon capture technology with carbon utilisation and permanent geological carbon dioxide (CO₂) storage.
- The project supports India’s Panchamrit climate commitments and long-term Net-Zero emission targets.
- The laboratory uses non-potable water to capture carbon emissions and convert them into industrial-grade carbonate and bicarbonate salts.
- The project also includes India’s first pilot-scale scientific drilling initiative to study carbon dioxide storage potential in the Deccan Traps basalt formations.
