The Swiss company Climeworks is building the world’s largest direct air capture (DAC) and storage facility for converting atmospheric CO 2 to rock in Iceland. Climeworks’ new facility in Iceland transports the CO 2 filtered out of the air below the Earth’s surface, where natural processes then mineralize it.

The systems will be tested in the laboratory and at the CarbFix sequestration project in Iceland, where CO 2 will be injected into a permeable basalt formation at 600 meters in depth. Such tagging will better quantify CO 2 monitoring and make it possible to accurately inventory geologically stored carbon.
