The long-term infrastructure, policies and alternative fuels needed to create a more sustainable world will take decades to gain traction. Meanwhile, outdated technologies will continue to pollute.
At STAX, we offer a proactive solution that makes an impact today: capturing and sequestering emissions.
Our ultimate goal is to capture 1% of the global emissions causing climate change and prevent them from getting into the atmosphere. To do this, we’re tackling the highest-polluting sectors, starting with the shipping industry.
The oceanic shipping industry is one of the world’s most significant contributors of pollutants, contributing 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions. If left unmitigated, that 3% could reach 10% by 2050.
Vessels docked at ports are among the most substantial sources of pollution, which affects local ecosystems and the health of communities. Our technology attaches to the ducts of at-berth vessels to capture up to 99% of all pollutants, purifying them into a harmless gas.
STAX is the only emissions capture and control solution approved by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to service both container ships and auto-carriers (ro-ros). Our service is now available at multiple California ports.
But our work has just begun. With plans to expand our fleet, service, and geographic reach, we’re committed to creating cleaner air for all.

Our proven capture and control technology treats the exhaust from backup diesel generators, effectively removing 99% of diesel particulate matter. Learn more >
Launched officially in 2024, STAX was co-founded by Bob Sharp (CTO), Mike Walker (CEO) and Edward Norton (Chief Strategy Officer).
A veteran engineer and inventor, Sharp designed all components of the patented STAX emission capture and control systems. He teamed up with Walker and Norton to operationalize and finance a company capable of achieving scale and enabling the shipping industry to achieve regulatory compliance across all California ports.
At its inception, STAX was the sole recipient of the California Air Resource Board (CARB)’s technology accelerator grant for mobile, at-berth emission capture and control.
The STAX team is innovating our systems every day, working to expand our services to include carbon capture and service large data centers.
