MIT Backs n0c Tech with Funding and Research Support

Cambridge, MA — October 6, 2025 — n0c Tech, founded by MIT engineer Sidhant Kumar, has been selected by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) — the world’s leading research university — for funding, research collaboration, and access to its innovation network.

The MIT student-founded startup is developing low-cost and compact carbon capture technology designed to help industrial emitters cut emissions with 55% lower CapEx and OpEx compared to traditional tower-based amine systems.

MIT Martin Trust Center for Entrepreneurship and MIT Sandbox Innovation Fund have both awarded n0c Tech non-dilutive grants, providing financial backing and resources to accelerate its technology development and commercialization.

Commenting on the importance of this innovation, MIT Professor Koroush Shirvan said:

“Natural gas and coal are energy-dense, provide high-temperature heat, and generate low-cost electricity — all at a much lower cost than solar or wind. Unlike intermittent renewables, fossil fuels deliver energy 24×7. To sustain the world’s existing trillion-dollar fossil infrastructure, low-cost and compact carbon capture and storage is the only viable path forward.”

n0c Tech aims to play a pivotal role in the global decarbonization effort by enabling heavy industries and power plants to capture and store CO₂ affordably and efficiently.
