Our technology

Climeworks removes CO₂ from the air to fight global warming and protect future generations to come. We use Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology to capture carbon dioxide directly from the air, permanently removing it from the atmosphere, so it can no longer contribute to climate change.  

Machines

Machines

Our first direct air capture plant launched in 2017, and we now have 15 machines in operation, with the world’s biggest DAC plant switched on in Iceland in May 2024.

Technology

Our machines consist of modular CO₂ collectors, which selectively capture carbon dioxide in a two-step process. The CO₂ captured can either be stored or reused as a raw material.

Basalt rock

Storage

In Iceland, the captured CO₂ is permanently and safely turned into stone through rapid mineralization, which is a natural occurrence where the CO₂ reacts with basalt rock.
