Waste in. Permanent value out.

9 patent-pending inventions · 8 solutions · one validated model

Karbonia is the technology company of Renewable Vision, based in Jeddah. Its electrochemical and mineralization platform turns aluminium smelter waste, desalination reject brine and captured CO₂ into permanent carbonate minerals, green hydrogen and methanol, and treated water — every solution engineered on one validated process model and deployed with operating partners.

The value chain

The feedstock is waste. The product is permanent.

Smelter residues supply the alkalinity and the cations; captured CO₂ supplies the carbon. One platform routes that chemistry three ways — minerals that hold CO₂ permanently, fuels made on validated kinetics, and water that leaves cleaner than it arrived.

Stage 01

Industrial waste + CO₂

Smelter dross, reject brine, spent pot lining and captured carbon.

Karbonia process trains

Electrochemical and mineralization units, digitally controlled.

Stage 03

Permanent value

Minerals, fuels and treated water — verified tonne by tonne.

The Karbonia Master Model

One platform designs, prices and verifies every process before anything is built.

Thermodynamics, kinetics, process design, economics and verification — the model every Karbonia solution is engineered on. Every result is computed twice: two independent engines must agree before a number is reported.

Thermochemical Engine

Core chemistry

Solves the water chemistry — what dissolves, what precipitates and when — using models built for real, concentrated brines.

  • 41 industrial-grade unit operations
  • Every parameter traced to published science
  • Reproduces published Saudi brine reference data

Verification Engine

Independent check

An independent layer recomputes every result and benchmarks the whole suite against the industry-standard simulator.

  • Matches the industry-standard simulator on benchmark cases
  • Billions of calculations in minutes
  • Honest validation labels on every capability

The model

Proprietary by design. Deployed with partners.

Karbonia owns the model, the patents and the Master Briefings — and deploys them with operating partners rather than competing with them.

Our vision

A Kingdom where every industrial waste stream is a resource — feeding the minerals, fuels and water of a circular carbon economy.

Our mission

To own, develop and validate the technologies that turn industrial waste — spent pot lining, black dross, reject brine and CO₂ — into permanent minerals, clean fuels, treated water and verified carbon value, deployed with partners.
