Orca is the world’s first and largest direct carbon capture and storage plant. According to Swiss company Climeworks, Orca will be able to remove 4,000 tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere every year. Here’s more from Science Focus:
The carbon dioxide that Orca captures is mixed with water and is then pumped deep underground. Over the course of a few years, this CO2 reacts with the natural basalt and eventually turns into solid carbonate minerals.
