DAC is a carbon capture technology approach that focuses on removing CO2 directly from the atmosphere around us.

Key Points: 
  • DAC is a carbon capture technology approach that focuses on removing CO2 directly from the atmosphere around us.
  • Typically this requires significant amounts of heat and electricity and large commitments of capital, making the economics and commercialization timelines challenging.
  • Alongside developing the plant, MZT aims to involve local students and community organisations in knowledge dissemination activities about DAC.
  • Based in London, UK, Mission Zero Technologies is a young and exciting DAC startup, backed by Breakthrough Energy Ventures and Anglo American, with a patent-pending breakthrough technology and is on a mission to close the carbon cycle.
