Product description
Direct Air Capture + Storage (DAC+S) is a cutting-edge solution developed by Climeworks to combat climate change by removing CO₂ directly from the atmosphere. This innovative system utilizes modular units equipped with fans and proprietary filters to capture CO₂ from ambient air. The captured CO₂ is then stored underground through geological mineralization or utilized for industrial purposes, providing a closed-loop process for carbon removal.
The DAC+S system has been designed to deliver verified and permanent carbon removal, with integrity certified to rigorous standards. Key installations such as Orca and Mammoth in Iceland demonstrate the system's capabilities, with the latest Gen 3 development further enhancing efficiency and capacity. By offering DAC+S as a service, Climeworks provides businesses and individuals with flexible subscription or credit-based models to offset their carbon emissions effectively.
With a focus on scalability, the DAC+S system aims to achieve megaton to gigaton-level deployment by mid-century, aligning with global recommendations for climate action. By supporting companies in reaching net-zero targets, this solution plays a crucial role in mitigating the impacts of climate change and promoting sustainable practices.
