Upcoming JPI Seminar on CO₂ Capture Technologies

On May 19, 2026, the Japan Planning Institute (JPI) will host a seminar focusing on the rapidly advancing technologies in CO₂ separation and capture, particularly in Direct Air Capture (DAC) systems. The seminar will feature guest speaker Yasuo Hosono, a Technical Advisor from Chiyoda Corporation's Frontier Business Headquarters. Participants will gain valuable insights into the development trends in CO₂ capture technology and the latest perspectives on building CCUS (Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage) supply chains and associated business opportunities.
