Biggest Airborne Carbon Pollution Capturing System In The World
Smog, soot, greenhouse gases,
and many other air pollutants are effecting the planet
As the United Nations recently
updated the Air Quality Guidelines
for air pollution control
Another way for pollution control can be through Direct Air Capture
Climeworks launched Orca, the world’s
largest direct air capture and carbon storage system with Carbfix, in Iceland
This complete process is
powered by Geothermal energy
In 2017, Climeworks commissioned
the world’s first commercial-scale
direct air capture plant
in Switzerland
The captured CO2
was upcycled to
make fertilisers &
fizzy drinks
In Italy Climework’s plant uses captured carbon to make vehicular fuel
Dr. Jan Wurzbacher and Dr. Christoph
Gebald, co-founders of Climeworks, had
been working on direct air capture since 2009
Climeworks’s aim is to reduce carbon dioxide emission and
reverse the climate crisis
