Qarboon designs, manufactures and assembles in France machines for cleaning, extracting or decontaminating machined parts, textiles, plant substances or contaminated materials using supercritical CO2.
Qarboon is developing a technology based on the use of supercritical CO2, a cross-disciplinary technology that can be used in a wide range of industries as an environmentally-friendly alternative to traditional processes that pollute or consume water, or to develop new practices.

Thermosensitive and non-thermosensitive polymers, metals, biopolymers and biosourced materials, textiles, silicone.
4-fold reduction in operating costs
10-fold reduction in processing time.
Reduces cleaning time by up to 10x.
50% less electricity
100% water savings
No trace of solvents
No chemicals
Supercritical CO2 is an essential technological building block for achieving decontamination objectives with a view to reusing used materials.
Extraction of pollutants, whether at the heart of the material (pesticides, organic solvents) or on the surface (various lubricants, food residues, etc.).
After treatment, the "pure" contaminants are recovered for destruction in specialised facilities. The decontaminated material is dry, at room temperature and ready for a second life.
Allows the recycling of non-recyclable materials without water or chemicals, compatible with all materials. 4 to 5 log reduction in biological load (pre-sterilisation) for machines with industrial volumes.
Reduce your electricity bill, your water consumption and eliminate all hydrocarbon pollution thanks to supercritical CO2
Desensitisation, dyeing and coating, decontamination, cleaning and maintenance of PPE
Compatible with all needs (spools of thread, rolls of fabric, pieces of clothing, etc.) compatible with all synthetic and natural materials and all metals.
50% less electricity
100% water savings
No trace of solvents
No chemicals
Supercritical CO2 is the best alternative to traditional solvents for degreasing all types of parts, whatever their geometry.
Leaves no residue on the surface of parts and improves surface tension, with no risk of corrosion.
Parts can be handled instantly after low-temperature, dry treatment, with no drying required.
50% less electricity
Without water or chemicals, ultra-repeatable.
The extracted particles and oils are collected dry and can be recycled, contributing to more environmentally-friendly production.

Supercritical CO2 is a special state of carbon dioxide, achieved by heating it to a minimum temperature of 31°C and subjecting it to a pressure of at least 73 bar.
In this state, it behaves like an apolar solvent, offering an environmentally friendly and effective alternative to traditional solvents such as chlorinated, fluorinated and petroleum compounds, as well as laundry detergents.
Used in fields as diverse as machining and bar turning of parts, the medical sector, the food industry, pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, recycling and textiles, supercritical CO2 is revolutionising many industries thanks to its unique properties.
Machines capable of 24/7 operation, with robot loading and unloading with a robot for very high output.
The autoclave unit is compact so that it can be installed in the heart of the production workshop, taking up as little space as possible.
