How we generate carbon credits

DAC: the basic concept

Engineered atmospheric carbon removal

CarbonCapture’s DAC systems use solid sorbents that soak up atmospheric carbon dioxide when cooled and release it when heated. The carbon dioxide thus captured can then be permanently stored underground or used to make sustainable fuels, low-carbon concrete, carbon black, or other valuable industrial products.

Why DAC credits?

The gold standard of carbon removal credits

Measurable

The exact amount of CO₂ our DAC systems capture is precisely metered and measured.

Verifiable

For each carbon removal credit we deliver, we provide a complete third-party verification report.

Permanent

The CO₂ we capture is securely locked away for more than 1,000 years in deep saline aquifers via Class VI injection wells.

Additional

Without your financial support, DAC carbon removal wouldn't otherwise occur. They’re 100% additional.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about our carbon removal credits

General questions

What is direct air capture and why do we need it?

Open

Direct air capture (DAC) refers to technologies that remove carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere. DAC helps combat climate change by offsetting emissions in order to achieve carbon neutrality or even net negative emissions.

DAC is valuable because it deals with the main cause of global warming: the excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. To keep global warming to under 1.5°C by 2100, the IPCC reported in April 2022 that carbon removal technologies like DAC are necessary (along with emissions reductions) to achieve climate goals. 

How does your technology work?

Open

Our machines use solid sorbents to capture CO2 via a process called temperature-vacuum swing adsorption (TVSA). In the adsorption step, fans pull air through the system, and the sorbents collect CO2 until they are full. In the desorption step, they are heated to release the CO2. A vacuum pump removes the released CO2 for processing or storage. After this, the sorbents are cooled and are ready to collect CO2 again.

TVSA is a long-standing method for industrial gas separation that we have adapted to efficiently remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

How do you permanently sequester the carbon dioxide you capture from the atmosphere?

Open

The CO2 we capture is injected deep underground for sequestration via Class VI injection wells. 

When carbon dioxide is injected into Class VI wells, it is sent deep underground into suitable geological formations such as deep saline aquifers capped by hundreds of feet of impermeable rock that prevents CO2 from ever migrating to the surface. Storing carbon dioxide in Class VI wells is considered permanent because of the nature of the geological formations where the wells are located.

The EPA established its Class VI well classifications specifically for carbon sequestration; companies who seek a Class VI permit must meet stringent regulatory requirements to ensure the safety and effectiveness of long-term carbon dioxide storage.

What are carbon removal credits?

Open

A carbon removal credit represents the permanent removal of one metric ton of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Carbon removal credits are purchased by individuals and organizations that seek to offset their unavoidable or legacy emissions.

How do you generate carbon removal credits?

Open

The CO2 removed at our DAC facilities will be permanently stored by sequestering it in deep saline aquifers via Class VI injection wells. One carbon credit is generated for each ton of CO2 removed and sequestered. 

Why can’t we just plant more trees?

Open

Planting and safeguarding trees plays a critical role in the battle against climate change. But relying solely on trees is no longer sufficient, there just isn’t enough land. Further, climate change has resulted in droughts and wildfires — disruptions that have significantly impacted the dependability and long-term durability of tree-based carbon removal. Consequently, we must pursue a two-pronged approach: intensify nature-based carbon removal initiatives like afforestation while also scaling innovative technologies like direct air capture.

Shouldn’t we reduce industrial emissions first?

Open

In order to achieve international climate targets, we must do everything we can to reduce emissions immediately. Unfortunately, point source carbon capture and other means of reducing industrial emissions won’t get us to net zero on their own. To keep global warming to under 1.5°C by 2100, the IPCC stated in April 2022 that carbon removal technologies like DAC are necessary to address historical emissions as well as provide a high-quality option for offsetting unavoidable emissions. 

Why buy DAC credits now?

Open

Your support has a huge impact. Early purchases of nascent technologies like DAC carbon removal credits play a vital role in scaling up the technology by providing financial certainty that enables long-term planning and encourages rapid innovation and technology improvements. Early buyers are vital to bring down costs of DAC in the future so that the DAC industry can expand to meet our climate change goals.

How do I know you’re permanently removing carbon dioxide? Is there any third-party verification?

Open

Our credits will be certified under an International Carbon Reduction and Offsetting Accreditation (ICROA) compliant standard. ICROA is a leading industry accreditation program committed to enhancing integrity in the voluntary carbon market in support of the IPCC 2015 Paris Agreement goals. ICROA certifies best practices in greenhouse gas emissions reduction and offsetting. A third-party auditor will certify that 1) the credits we deliver meet the ICROA standard, 2) that a credit has not been sold more than once, and 3) that our project has not had unexpected leakages.

When will the carbon removal credits I purchase be delivered?

Open

We are currently taking advance commitments for credits that will be generated in 2026 and beyond (we’ve sold out earlier years).

Do I get any documentation for the credits I purchase?

Open

When your DAC carbon removal credits have been generated, we will provide you with a certificate as well as a report that documents the amount of net carbon dioxide captured and sequestered, a full accounting of any emissions created as a result of our processes, and a verification that no leakages have occurred.

Where is your company based?

Open

We're based in Los Angeles, California, where we’re building our team and developing our direct air capture technology.
