A long-term CO2 storage
Our innovation enables the sustainable storage of CO2 in wood
Drying under CO2 atmosphere :
a major innovation for the industry
wAys revolutionizes the way wood is dried with a chemical approach that completely overcomes the performance of current systems.
Under a hot CO2 atmosphere and following a precise drying protocol, the CO2 interacts not only with the bound water present in the wood but also with the different polymers that make it up. The CO2 is thus permanently “trapped” in the wood.
The process can be applied to all types of wood.
The main benefits
Durability
Thanks to our technology, the wood can be dried up to 0% humidity. The need for treatment is significantly reduced.
Stability
Our process avoids shrinking and deformation phenomena.
The wood dried using this process is of unrivaled quality.
Time savings
Drying takes place in less than 72 hours compared to the usual two weeks. It avoids unnecessary storage or costly shortages.
CO2 sequestration
Our process enables us to recover CO2 while making a significant and lasting contribution to emission reduction objectives.
Our innovations in conventional drying
wAys also innovates in conventional drying with solutions perfectly adapted to your needs and opens the possibility to optimize your investment through drying unit solutions in rental form.
