About

Founded in 2010, Ionada is a private headquartered in Houston, United States with approximately 50-200 employees specializing in Other.

Ionada manufactures and markets exhaust gas cleaning systems and carbon capture technologies that reduce emissions from marine and power generation industries. Founded in 2010 with support from the National Research Council Canada, the company pioneered hollow fiber membrane contactor reactor technology for post-combustion carbon capture. Their proprietary iDAC (Ionada Direct Air Capture) system removes CO2 directly from the atmosphere with 50% smaller equipment and 30% greater energy efficiency than conventional packed-bed technology. Ionada targets single-point emission locations, industrial facilities, waste-to-energy plants, natural gas compressor stations, and commercial shipping. The company operates globally with offices in North America, Germany, Netherlands, and UK, serving clients in marine, energy, oil and gas, and industrial sectors.
