Current direct air carbon capture (DAC) technologies face challenges in achieving the scale and cost-effectiveness required to remove gigatons of CO2 annually from the atmosphere. High operating costs and complex designs hinder widespread deployment and limit the potential impact on climate remediation.

GigaDAC is developing a direct air carbon capture (DAC) technology designed for gigaton-scale CO2 removal, focusing on maximizing the efficiency and minimizing the cost of large-scale airflow processing units (contactors). Their modular design eliminates packing media and minimizes pressure drop, aiming to significantly reduce the cost to build, deploy, and operate DAC systems. The technology targets harvesting CO2 at a cost below $80 per ton, making it economically viable for applications in energy production, commodities supply, and climate remediation.
