Direct Air Capture is a technology that captures carbon dioxide directly from the air with an engineered, mechanical system. Our Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology does this by pulling in atmospheric air, then through a series of chemical reactions, extracts the carbon dioxide (CO2) from it while returning the rest of the air to the environment. This is what plants and trees do every day as they photosynthesize, except Direct Air Capture technology does it much faster, with a smaller land footprint, and delivers the carbon dioxide in a pure, compressed form that can then be stored underground or reused.
Through our Accelerated Carbonation Technology (ACT), we help industry decarbonise while transitioning to a more circular operation. We capture CO₂ directly from the source to treat industrial residues and manufacture new materials. The captured carbon is locked into innovative, low-carbon products like lightweight aggregates, CircaBuild and Circa Grow.
The principle is as simple as it is ingenious: CO2 is actively removed from the atmosphere through plants, but is only stored for a short time. Carbonauten permanently stores CO2 in products through carbonization and prevents other climate gases such as methane and nitrous oxide. The basis for this is the physical fact that each ton of biocarbon permanently binds up to 3.3 tons of CO2 equivalent. carbonauten refine the technical biocarbons produced in the “minus CO2 factories” into high-performance, regenerative and low-cost carbonauten NET Materials®. Through their various applications, CO2 is permanently incorporated into the soil as well as bound in products, which additionally conserves natural resources and replaces petroleum-based materials.
