How to build a Direct Air Capture (DAC) plant
What does it take to succesfully build a Direct Air Capture (DAC) plant? Learn more about the essential steps.
On this page, we're sharing our own publications on various topics. We hope you enjoy diving into them!
Climeworks’ carbon removal production waterfall
When a DAC plant captures a CO₂ molecule, that molecule goes through several steps before it is permanently stored and a removal is produced. Here’s an overview of all the steps of a DAC plant’s CDR production and the factors influencing it.
Climeworks' third industry snapshot
In this third edition of the Climeworks industry snapshot, our bi-annual publication focusing on the DAC industry, we feature contributions from scientists, industry and policy experts discussing DAC technology and exploring how it can help to ‘supercharge’ carbon removal.
Highlights of the Climeworks Direct Air Capture Summit 2023
We have put together the most important highlights of the fourth edition of the Direct Air Capture Summit, building on the insights of our fantastic speakers, as well as Climeworks' own research and experience.

Our co-CEOs and co-founders Christoph Gebald and Jan Wurzbacher kicked off the Direct Air Capture Summit 2023 with a presentation outlining the current state of the carbon removal industry with its opportunities and challenges - we are sharing the slides here.
Carbon removal actors join call for the clear distinction between reductions and removals
In April 2022, Climeworks published a statement calling for a clear distinction between emissions reductions and carbon dioxide removal - in climate pathways, target setting and industry standards. The reactions have been very affirmative and while Climeworks initiated the statement, it became clear that it addresses a topic relevant to the broader carbon removal ecosystem.
Climeworks' statement on the distinction between reductions and removals
Emissions reductions and carbon dioxide removal fulfil two fundamentally different purposes in solving the climate crisis and present differing dynamics. Hence, Climeworks believes that the two solutions should be clearly separated and treated differently, in line with climate science.
Climeworks' second industry snapshot
Climeworks introduces its second industry snapshot, a publication focusing on the trends and topics driving growth within the direct air capture (DAC) industry. In this iteration, Climeworks examines the increasing deployment of DAC technology, and the conditions necessary to further drive it.
