The facility will filter 4,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide from the air and mineralize it underground. With direct air capture technology, carbon dioxide is extracted from the ambient air and air free of CO 2 is returned to the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide is thus permanently removed from the atmosphere.

The recovered CO 2 is then available in a highly concentrated form as a raw material for permanent storage or for a wide range of industrial applications. This made it possible to reduce significantly the cost of sequestration, which is already down to the low three-digits range in euros per ton of CO 2.
