bio-CO₂ Without Liquefaction: The Galloxol® Story in Hortidaily

Hortidaily has published a feature on how Green Gas & Liquids delivers greenhouse-ready bio-CO₂ without liquefaction. The article walks through what Galloxol® changes for growers: CO₂ that flows straight from the capture unit to the crop, in gaseous form, with no liquefaction step in between.

Trade coverage matters because it reaches the people who dose CO₂ daily. Growers have long faced a simple constraint. Captured CO₂ needed liquefaction before it was safe to use over a crop. That step adds capital cost, electrical demand and maintenance. Galloxol® removes it.

Why bio-CO₂ Without Liquefaction Matters for Growers

The feature anchors the claim in evidence. An independent lab analysed CO₂ captured from a biomass boiler running Galloxol®. It tested the gas against ISBT and EIGA specifications. The measured gas met ISBT limits under real operating conditions. Those results came from an operating installation, not a laboratory.

ISBT is a beverage specification, not a horticultural one. Across most parameters it is considerably stricter. Meeting its limits shows how little the Galloxol® process itself adds to the gas stream. Final CO₂ quality always depends on fuel and combustion conditions. But on a suitable fuel and a well-run boiler, the captured gas has satisfied a specification written for carbonated drinks.

A Safer Chemistry at the Core

The solvent sits at the heart of the Galloxol® process. It is safe and biodegradable. Many amine-based capture systems rely on chemicals that bring their own handling, toxicity and disposal concerns. That difference matters twice over: it simplifies compliance for plant operators, and it reduces chemical risk in CO₂ that enriches crops people will eat.

No Liquefaction Means Lower Costs

Removing liquefaction changes more than the process. It changes the economics. Liquefaction equipment is a major capital line item. It consumes significant electricity. It carries a recurring maintenance burden, from routine servicing to eventual overhaul of rotating parts.

Galloxol® delivers CO₂ in gaseous form straight from the capture unit. A grower pipes it directly into the greenhouse. The gas moves from boiler exhaust to crop enrichment in one continuous process. Where the grower doses on-site, the liquefaction section can stay out of the plant. Green Gas & Liquids includes it only where storage or off-site supply calls for it.

A Proven Track Record

Galloxol® is not a newly commercialised concept. Green Gas & Liquids has run plants on this technology since 2019. Four systems operate today across the horticulture and biogas industries in the Netherlands, Italy and Austria.

For growers weighing their CO₂ supply options, that combination adds up to a distinct proposition. A gaseous product they can dose straight onto the crop. A safe, biodegradable capture chemistry. Lower capital and operating costs where on-site dosing makes liquefaction unnecessary.

What Growers Ask Us After Reading

When growers read the feature, three questions tend to follow. First: does the gas quality hold up over time? The ISBT results come from operating installations, which gives a field-verified answer rather than a lab promise. Second: what does it cost compared with bought-in CO₂? Removing liquefaction takes a major cost block out of the equation. Third: does it fit a smaller operation? Making capture accessible to mid-size and smaller growers is exactly the point of a simpler, lower-cost capture line.

We welcome those questions. They are the right ones to ask before investing in capture.
