Captura facility could remove gigatons of carbon dioxide from the ocean

• New Atlas

The company intends to extract carbon dioxide from ocean water and release the purified water back into the ocean, using only renewable electricity and ocean water as inputs to minimize the environmental impact.

The carbon clean-up will be achieved through the company's patented electrodialysis process, dubbed Direct Ocean Capture (DOC). DOC generates a stream of pure CO2 that can be sequestered or reused to produce other low-carbon materials or products, in an effort to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. The company aims to achieve large-scale carbon removal at a lower cost than existing methods.
