Abstract: In this paper, we introduce quotients of exact categories by percolating subcategories. This approach extends earlier localization theories by Cardenas and Schlichting for exact categories, allowing new examples. Let $mathcalA$ be a percolating subcategory of an exact category $mathcalE$, the quotient $mathcalE/mkern-6mu/mathcalA$ is constructed in two steps. In the first step, we associate a set $S_{m}athcalAsubseteqoperatornameMor(mathcalE)$ to $mathcalA$ and consider the localization $mathcalE[S_m^{-1}athcalA]$. In general, $mathcalE[S_{m}athcal{A}^{-1}]$ need not be an exact category, but will be a one-sided exact category. In the second step, we take the exact hull $mathcalE/mkern-6mu/mathcalA$ of $mathcalE[S_{m}athcal{E}^{-1}]$. The composition $mathcalEightarrowmathcalE[S_{m}athcal{A}^{-1}]ightarrowmathcalE/mkern-6mu/mathcalA$ satisfies the 2-universal property of a quotient in the 2-category of exact categories. We formulate our results in slightly more generality, allowing to start from a one-sided exact category. Additionally, we consider a type of percolating subcategories which guarantee that the morphisms of the set $S_{m}athcalA$ are admissible. In upcoming work, we show that these localizations induce Verdier localizations on the level of the bounded derived category.
