Environmental concerns about global warming have led to the development of emerging technologies to mitigate new emissions of greenhouse gases. Although reducing these new emissions helps to reduce the magnitude of global warming, it does not reduce the impact of previous emissions which are already in Earth\u2019s atmosphere.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A practical solution to lower previous carbon dioxide and other greenhouse emissions is direct air capture, or\u00a0DAC<\/a>, which is the process of sequestering, storing, or reusing the CO2<\/sub><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>or other greenhouse gases concentrated from ambient air.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Many companies around the world are working to build more efficient DAC systems by researching, developing, and scaling improved methods of capturing CO2\u00a0<\/sub><\/span>from ambient air and reducing energy use while improving CO2\u00a0<\/sub>conversion rates.<\/span><\/p>\n

Companies such as\u00a0Verdox<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Carbon Collect<\/a>\u00a0are testing novel methods to optimize DAC systems using technologies such as electro-swing adsorption and passive direct air capture (PDAC). Over time, these innovations along with other developments in the industry will lead to lower direct air capture costs, increasing the economic value of these systems.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Verdox, a company using\u00a0electro-swing adsorption<\/a>\u00a0in its DAC systems, developed a process which relies on electricity instead of heat to reduce the energy needed to capture and release CO2\u00a0<\/sub><\/span>from ambient or process gases.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Alternatively, Carbon Collect has developed a method which passively captures ambient air without the use of fans, reducing the total energy of their DAC systems.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Alicat devices can optimize the research and development of DAC system design by providing flow and pressure regulation, including useful features such as:<\/span><\/p>\n
