carbon-capture-tech • Climate Tech & Sustainability
Climeworks operates the world's largest direct air capture (DAC) plants, including the Mammoth facility in Iceland that captures 36,000 tons of CO₂ annually. Their modular Orca and Gen2 systems filter ambient air, extract CO₂ using amine-based sorbents, and permanently store it underground via the Carbfix mineralization process. Enterprises purchase verified carbon removal credits to meet net-zero commitments.
