Climeworks - Capturing CO2 from air
- 3. 3PUBLIC 87% of IPCC mitigation scenarios compatible with the 2°C target – and all those compatible with the 1.5°C target – rely on the assumption of large-scale CO2 removal WHY DIRECT AIR CAPTURE
- 4. 4PUBLIC • World’s first company supplying atmospheric CO2 to customers • Modular CO2 capture plants • Scale-up via mass production of CO2 collectors • Low-temperature heat (renewable or waste) as main energy source • Minimal carbon footprint: 90% net efficiency THE CLIMEWORKS SOLUTION

- 9. 9PUBLIC MERCHANT MARKET FLAGSHIP World’s first commercial DAC plant Plant type: DAC-18 CO2 capacity: 2’460 kg/day CO2 application: Greenhouse Heat source: Waste heat Location: Hinwil, Switzerland Commissioned: 31st May 2017
- 10. 10PUBLIC MERCHANT MARKET FLAGSHIP 1 CO2 is captured directly from air using waste heat. CO2 is delivered to nearby greenhouse via an underground pipe. 2 3 The more CO2 is in the air, the better vegetables grow – up to 20% better!
- 11. 11PUBLIC “Utilizing local CO2 from ambient air is in line with our standards for sustainable production and has a positive effect on the marketing of our products.” Fritz Meier, Gebrüder Meier “By collaborating with Climeworks, we can utilize additional waste heat which increases the efficiency of our plant and reduces CO2 emissions at the same time.” Daniel Böni, KEZO MERCHANT MARKET TESTIMONIALS

- 14. 14PUBLIC CARBON DIOXIDE REMOVAL FLAGSHIP World’s first carbon dioxide removal plant enabled by DAC Plant type: DAC-1 CO2 capacity: 135 kg/day CO2 application: Mineralization Heat source: Geothermal Location: Hellisheidi, Iceland Commissioned: 11th Oct 2017
- 15. 15PUBLIC CARBON DIOXIDE REMOVAL FLAGSHIP 1 CO2 is captured directly from ambient air using renewable, e.g. geothermal energy. CO2 is pumped underground at favorable CO2 storage sites, e.g. Iceland. 2 3 CO2 reacts with underground rock formations and is mineralized. CO2 is thereby bound permanently and safely, reducing the CO2 content of the atmosphere.
