Carbon removal for beginners
Carbon removal is a complex topic, but it's essential to understand if we want to tackle climate change. Our aim is to give you a basic understanding of carbon removal, so you can be part of the solution.
Biochar
Biochar, a coal-like substance produced by heating biomass without oxygen, can be used to lock away carbon dioxide in long-term storage.
DACS
DACS captures CO₂ from ambient air using filters, which is stored by pumping into underground caverns or for mineralization.
Running Tide
Running Tide uses kelp-seeded biomass buoys to capture carbon, which are then sunk into the deep ocean for safe and permanent storage.
Olivine distribution
Spreading olivine sand accelerates the natural process of reacting with atmospheric CO₂, sequestering it as stable silicates.
Charm Industrial
Charm converts agricultural waste into bio-oil using pyrolysis and stores it in depleted oil caverns for long-term storage.
greenSand
greenSand amplifies chemical weathering by mining, grinding and distributing olivine minerals to naturally remove CO₂.
Eden Reforestation
Eden restores forests, which remove CO₂ from the atmosphere naturally through photosynthesis.
Climeworks
Climeworks utilizes DAC technology to extract CO₂ from the air, then stores it underground to mineralize and solidify.
