Isaac Mwaura

Isaac Mwaura is an experienced Chemical Engineer specializing in the material science and process engineering of carbon capture systems. As the Deputy Head of R&D at Octavia Carbon, he oversees the material engineering and process scaling of DAC technologies.

Isaac’s research interests center on developing sustainable, cost-effective capture materials validated through rigorous TEA and LCA modeling. His expertise spans the full development cycle—from synthesizing novel adsorbents to designing the process systems that utilize them. He is now applying this expertise to evaluate and mitigate the impact of geothermal non-condensable gases, specifically Hydrogen Sulfide, on DAC adsorbent performance.
