An Alberta brewery now collects the CO2 generated in the fermentation stage of making beer to carbonate the beer (yeast converts sugar to alcohol and CO2). The first small Canadian brewery to capture carbon saves about $60,000 a year on sourced CO2 canisters by scrubbing, compressing, and injecting the collected CO2 to recycle brewery emissions.
