CO₂ capture technology embodied in compact DAC Units

We are a Ukrainian hardware startup, which has developed a new technology to capture CO₂ from the ambient air locally and efficiently.

Our technology relies on a mix of dry and wet CO₂ capture approaches, using ion-exchange sorbent on the capture stage and electrochemistry-based regeneration on the CO₂ release stage.

One of the key advantages of Carbominer’s capture process is its ability to use an intermittent energy from renewable sources.

Our Competitive Advantages

Low cost

We offer locally captured fossil-free carbon dioxide cheaper than any other CO₂ of DAC origin.

No Risk

Clients only pay for the delivered CO₂. No need to buy the capturing module itself or take on any additional costs.

Renewable-friendly

Due to use of electrochemistry, our capture tech ideally fits for using intermittent renewable energy.

DAC CO₂ for sustainable growing

Though DAC technology can be used in different markets, we have selected the growing market of indoor agriculture as our market entrance. We are going to sell locally captured carbon dioxide to greenhouses growers and vertical farmers to help switch to a sustainable growing cycle.

CO₂ injections are a common routine for indoor agriculture, as it helps promote plant growth by 25-35%. Currently, modern greenhouse operators choose between CO₂ as a byproduct from burning natural gas for heating or CO₂ from the open gas market in liquefied form – both options are far from being climate-neutral.

With our innovative DAC approach, farmers can benefit from both the CO₂ itself and the reduced carbon footprint of the growing operations.
