From Wasteful, Harmful CO₂, to a Carbon Nano Future. Leveraging electrolysis to transform emissions into valuable materials.
Gad Licht is a clean-tech and material researcher innovator specializing in CO₂ and CNM (Carbon Nano Materials). He is a 2020 Wesleyan University Graduate in Middletown, CT, where he earned a degree in Physics and Molecular Biology & Biochemistry (MB&B), along with a certificate in Molecular Biophysics and Applied Data Analysis. He is currently pursuing a Master in Physics at UMass Lowell.
Licht has authored and co-authored numerous peer-reviewed publications (over 200 publications, with his first sole author one in High School) available on ResearchGate, covering CO₂-derived CNM (Carbon Nano Materials), molten carbonate electrolysis, post-processing methods, and computationally designed metamaterials (such as invisibility cloaking).
His work spans both process development and post-processing and application of C2CNT-derived materials, supporting scalable, carbon-negative manufacturing pathways.

Bridging the gap between laboratory discovery and industrial-scale implementation. Our consulting services focus on the strategic deployment of C2CNT carbon nanotube technology.
Optimization of electrochemical cells to maximize CO₂ throughput while minimizing energy consumption. Thermodynamic analysis for high-temperature electrolysis environments.
End-to-end integration of C2CNT modules into existing cement, steel, and power production facilities. Scalable design for diverse industrial emissions profiles.
The C2CNT process is an advanced electrochemical process that turns carbon dioxide into valuable Carbon Nanotubes and related Carbon Nanomaterials (CNTs & CNM -Carbon Nano Materials). C2CNT stands out because it solves 2 problems at once: cutting greenhouse gases and producing ultra-high-performance materials.
Economically attractive: CNTs/CNM (Carbon Nano Materials) are far more valuable than the cost of capturing CO₂, meaning the process can pay for itself and even generate substantial profit.
C2CNT turns pollution into profit and supports climate-mitigating industries.
We provide data-driven insight for industrial leaders looking to transition from carbon liability to carbon asset.
