CBE Eco-Solutions (CBE) provides a double-sustainable solution to treat industrial carbon waste: 1) CBE recycles the carbon waste into high-value products, instead of incineration and landfill; 2) CBE’s end products have broad energy and environmental applications.

Co-founded in 2020 by Dr Yao Zhiyi (PhD Chemical Engineering, Class of 2018) and Dr Babu Cadiam Mohan (Research Fellow at CDE), the startup is built on its patented carbon waste recycling technology that reduces 1.4 tons of carbon emission per ton of carbon waste treated.

Backed by S$5.5 million in pre-Series A funding, it completed its Jurong demonstration plant in November 2024 and is poised to set a new benchmark for sustainable practices, not only in Southeast Asia but across the globe.
