🎛️ How this technology works is explained in a 🧵 below ⬇️

[1/4]

"@ParallelCarbon’s patent-pending #DAC system captures CO2 from air using minerals that transform their chemical structure while doing so. These minerals are processed using aqueous, acid-base reactions (produced by water electrolysis) to permanently store the captured CO2."

Production of green #hydrogen:
"This #DAC technology is special: 
@ParallelCarbon's electrolyzer also produces green hydrogen, which is an important tool for decarbonizing industries."

"This project will utilize CO2 to create infrastructure materials from highly alkaline materials & wastes, & will also durably store CO2 via underground injection."

"Through these pathways, @ParallelCarbon will store more than 2 gigatonnes of CO2/yr from the air by 2040."
