DACMA delivers high-quality and large-scale DAC systems that are designed for a large variety of climate conditions

DACMA captures CO2 for storage and utilization:

We see an infographic explaining the DAC process from CO2 emissions to DAC Carbon Capture to CCS Carbon Capture Storage to CCU Carbon Capture Utilization. The DACMA DAC plant is in the centre of the picture.

Deliverable and scalable to Gigatons:

Our DAC solution boasts a proven track record, with the initial machines successfully delivered in 2023. The scalable design reaches gigaton capacities, providing a robust framework for high CO2 uptake while minimizing energy demand. This commitment to efficiency and scalability positions our DAC technology as a forefront solution in addressing net zero goals.

Patented adsorber with optimized air flow for maximal CO2 uptake vs. competition

The carbon dioxide is captured in an adsorption process and collected after desorption. We have evaluated the capture capacity at ambient conditions of more than 40 different adsorbent materials to optimize CO2 uptake.

Our patented reactor design integrates principles borrowed from our aerospace industry know-how, strategically optimizing airflow patterns to maximize contact efficiency.

DACMA has developed a unique approach to DAC that removes CO2 from the atmosphere

  1. CO2 rich air is pulled into a filtration system via large fans.
  2. Once the air is in the system, it is passed through an adsorbent that absorbs the CO2 molecules.
  3. The lean-CO2 air is then returned to the atmosphere.
  4. The removed CO2 is then stored or used for other materials such as concrete or fuels (CCS / CCU).

On the left is a spherical structure bearing the logos of Repsol Sinopec Brasil, IPR and PUCRS, presumably serving as part of the CO₂ filtration technology. To the right is a modern building labeled “DACMA” with several large fans at the front. These fans are essential components of the plant, which captures CO₂ directly from the atmosphere. The surroundings are green, underlining the plant's focus on sustainable and environmentally friendly technologies.

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU)

The CO2 obtained through our advanced processes serves as a valuable raw material, offering two primary pathways for responsible management. Firstly, through Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU), we harness the captured CO2 as a valuable resource for various industrial applications, contributing to a sustainable circular economy. Alternatively, for a more permanent solution, our technology facilitates Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), wherein the CO2 is safely and securely sequestered, preventing its release back into the atmosphere.

“In just one year, DACMA GmbH have achieved an exponential progress in the atmospheric carbon capture journey. The strategic alliance with Repsol (both in Venturing Capital and projects) will boost the pace of this highly focused group of outstanding engineers that are persistently looking for every angle of the technology improvement. Take the time to celebrate, acknowledge your success and keep going!!!”

Federico Giannangeli
Director of Reggane Asset, Repsol

“One of the most relevant projects related to the development of technologies with a negative CO2 effect, the ONLY project in Brazil on Direct Air Capture multi-country Spain, Brazil Germany in Open Innovation. Repsol Sinopec Brazil Corporation, Start Up DACMA and PUC Rio Grande do Sul University. A disruptive commitment to a more decarbonized world. Being part of this project is a privilege and a unique opportunity to add value to society.”

Jose Javier Salinero Rodriguez
Head of R&D Repsol Sinopec Brazil

“In collaboration with Phoenix Contact, DACMA has developed an application that contributes to CO2 decarbonization. This technology makes a significant contribution to sector coupling in the All Electric Society and to the sustainable use of energy. I am delighted that two technology-driven companies are working together so efficiently.”

Carsten Friedrich
Director Prozess- und Verfahrenstechnik Industrial Management Automation, Phoenix Contact

“The DACMA GmbH with Jörg Spitzner and his team are not only valuable partners in our network, but also key initiators and innovators who, with BLANCAIR, are driving forward DAC system engineering in the Hamburg metropolitan region – an essential future climate change mitigation technology.”

Jan Rispens
Founding Managing Director of the Renewable Energy Hamburg Cluster

“Together with our partner DACMA GmbH, we are delighted to be building the first DAC machine on the HAMBURG BLUE HUB site in the Port of Hamburg. The 30-60 tons output of CO2 annually of the BLANCAIR machine can later be used to produce e-methanol for the Port of Hamburg, for example. This is a joint milestone, as it fits in with the plan to purchase large volumes of synthetic fuels from Power-to-X plants in Africa and South America for Germany through the HAMBURG BLUE HUB”.
