Climeworks has launched a second commercial plant for capturing and storing atmospheric carbon dioxide (Direct Air Capture – DAC). The plant will be modular. It is expected to be fully completed by the end of 2024 and will then be able to remove 36,000 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere every year, the company announced on Wednesday. This would make it the largest DAC plant in the world.
