Problem
Removing existing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is critical to mitigating climate change, but current direct air capture (DAC) technologies often lack scalability and cost-effectiveness. Existing solutions struggle to achieve the necessary scale for significant impact due to limitations in manufacturing and deployment.
Solution
CarbonCapture Inc. offers modular DAC systems designed for mass production and scalable deployment. Each Leo Series DAC module, the size of a standard shipping container, can extract over 500 tons of CO₂ annually using solid sorbents. These modules can be interconnected to capture large volumes of CO₂, which can then be permanently stored underground or used to create sustainable products. The company also develops and deploys these systems at their own carbon removal projects, allowing for continuous improvement of efficiency and maintainability.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes developers of carbon removal projects, companies seeking high-quality carbon removal credits, and organizations committed to decarbonizing the atmosphere.
Features
- Modular Open System Architecture (MOSA) for rapid iteration and reduced obsolescence risk
- Solid sorbents that capture atmospheric CO₂ when cooled and release it when heated
- Precise metering and measurement of captured CO₂
- Permanent geological storage in deep saline aquifers via Class VI injection wells
- Third-party verification reports for each carbon removal credit
