Biogenic Carbon Removal Solutions for Net-Zero Emissions
Founded in 2012 by brothers Ed and Richard Nimmons, our company specialises in capturing and permanently removing biogenic carbon emissions from fermentation industries and biogas plants. With over 12 years of operational experience, we have successfully captured and sequestered more than 80,000 tonnes of CO2 using our proprietary ISO-certified Nimmons900 technology. Our end-to-end solutions encompass capture, transport, and durable storage through mineralisation or underground sequestration. As pioneers in engineered carbon removals, we hold strategic partnerships with industry leaders and operate across the UK and Scandinavia, with plans to expand throughout Europe.Our team combines deep expertise from offshore gas, distilling, and climate technology sectors to deliver scalable, verified carbon removal credits registered through Puro Earth and Isometric. We maintain a hands-on approach, prioritising local, sustainable solutions that maximise value for clients while minimising environmental impact.

Biogenic Carbon Capture
Our proprietary Nimmons900 technology captures biogenic CO2 from fermentation industries and biogas plants. This modular system enables efficient capture even in space-constrained facilities. The process transforms waste carbon streams into valuable removal credits while minimising operational disruption for clients.
Carbon Removal Credits
We generate verified carbon removal credits through permanent sequestration of biogenic CO2. These ISO-certified credits meet Puro Earth standards for durability and transparency. Organisations use our credits to achieve net-zero targets through measurable, third-party-verified climate action.
CO2 Sequestration
Our sequestration solutions include mineralisation in building materials and geological storage in depleted North Sea oil fields. These methods ensure permanent CO2 containment through chemical stabilisation or deep underground injection at EU-approved facilities with 30-year government contracts.
Carbon Credit Sales
We offer high-quality carbon removal credits to organisations seeking durable climate solutions. Our credits originate from operational UK sites and secured Scandinavian storage capacity. Buyers benefit from transparent pricing and verified impact through Puro's monitoring framework.
Biogas Plant Partnerships
We collaborate with biogas plants to capture and monetise their CO2 emissions. Partners receive additional revenue streams without capital expenditure. Our mobile technology integrates seamlessly with existing operations, enhancing sustainability while maintaining production efficiency.

Questions
What is biogenic carbon removal?
Biogenic carbon removal captures CO2 released from natural biological processes like fermentation and stores it permanently through mineralisation or underground sequestration.
How do your carbon credits work?
Our ISO-certified carbon removal credits represent permanent CO2 sequestration from biogenic sources, verified through Puro Earth's rigorous standards for measurable climate impact.
Can your credits offset Scope 3 emissions?
Yes, our verified carbon removal credits meet international standards for offsetting Scope 3 emissions through durable, third-party-verified biogenic carbon sequestration.
Where do you operate currently?
We operate in Scotland capturing whisky industry emissions and have secured 50,000 tonnes of North Sea sequestration capacity for Scandinavian biogas plants.
What makes your technology unique?
Our modular Nimmons900 system enables efficient CO2 capture even in space-constrained facilities, with mobile deployment capabilities for flexible, low-disruption installations.
How do you ensure permanence?
We use geological storage in depleted oil fields and mineralisation processes that convert CO2 into stable compounds for guaranteed long-term sequestration.
