Zelp Receives $4.7 Million Grant for Cow Face Masks to Reduce Methane Emissions

Zelp, a startup that claims to convert methane from cow burps into the water and carbon dioxide, has received a grant of $4.7 million from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The grant is intended to support Zelp's efforts to sell face masks for cows that are designed to reduce methane emissions, which is part of the startup's carbon offset credit scheme.

Founded by Francisco Norris, Zelp is an innovative company that aims to mitigate emissions from dairy and beef herds by using technology. By renting the devices to farmers, Zelp enables them to label their meat as environmentally friendly while also selling carbon offset credits.

Zelp has partnered with one of the largest meat producers in the UK to conduct trials on cows to reduce the carbon footprint of British beef. With the backing of King Charles, the company has developed a face mask that fits around the cow's head and captures methane emitted when it exhales. The methane gas is then directed through a micro-sized catalytic converter and released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide and water vapor.

According to Zelp, around 95% of the methane emitted by cows comes from their mouths and nostrils. The company claims that tests have shown a 53% reduction in methane emissions, and they aim to increase that to 60% next year.

In conclusion, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's grant to Zelp is a recognition of the startup's innovative approach to mitigating greenhouse gas emissions from cows. Zelp's technology could significantly reduce the carbon footprint of meat production, and it is encouraging to see such efforts being supported by influential organizations like the Gates Foundation.
