This is the first commercial scale carbon removal facility that could remove 109,500 tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere every year.
The world’s largest carbon direct removal plant, which can remove over 100,000 tons of carbon dioxide yearly, is being built in Quebec, Canada. Equatic is building the facility to amplify the way oceans work as carbon sinks and help reduce carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere.
This could be a crucial tool in mitigating climate change since reducing greenhouse gases is not enough to stop the planet from warming further. We need active means of carbon removal, and Equatic’s technology is the first commercial-scaleThe company has already demonstrated its technology at two pilot plants, one in Los Angeles and the other in Singapore.
An added advantage of the process is the creation of hydrogen, which can be sold separately or used by the facility to power its operations. that can handle 4,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide and is expected to go online later this year. The facility will help Equatic build its commercial-scale project in Quebec, which aims to process 109,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide and generate 3,600 tonnes of green hydrogen annually.
