DACMA’s Direct Air Capture (DAC) Technologies are designed for a large variety of climate conditions
Our DAC projects in extreme climate zones
1. PUCRS, South America
Our first industrialized Direct Air Capture System with a capacity of capturing 300 tons CO2 per year is the largest DAC system running in South America. The plant was successfully handed over to the customer in October 2024.
| Location | Porto Alegre, Brazil |
| Climate zone | subtropical |
| Capacity | 300 TA CO2 |
| Status | in operation since Q4 2024 |
| CCU/CCS | Carbon Capture Storage |
2. 5,000 TA CO2, Brasil
| Location | Brasil |
| Climate zone | tropical |
| Capacity | 5,000 TA CO2 |
| Status | feasibility study finished, planned for 2027 |
| CCU/CCS | CCS |
3. KIT H2MARE, Germany
DACMA has been awarded the contract to install DAC (Direct Air Capture) units offshore as part of the H2Mare project from KIT.
| Location | Helgoland, Germany |
| Climate zone | temperate, offshore |
| Capacity | 60 TA CO2 |
| Status | in operation since May 2025 |
| CCU/CCS | CCU offshore |
4. PEGASUS
One of DACMA’s current projects involves the construction of a direct air capture plant in the Port of Hamburg with a capacity of 60 tons of CO2 per year.
| Location | Hamburg, Germany |
| Climate zone | temperate |
| Capacity | 60 TA CO2 |
| Status | under construction, Q3 2025 |
| CCU/CCS | CCU |
5. KIT SEKO, Germany
DACMA partners with Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) to integrate a DAC unit into a building air conditioning system to study the synergy of the ventilation and CO2 removal functions depending on outside climate conditions.
| Location | Karlsruhe, Germany |
| Climate zone | temperate |
| Capacity | 60 TA CO2 |
| Status | under construction, Q3 2025 |
6. 5,000 TA CO2, Australia
DACMA is commissioned with a feasibility study for a DAC plus CO2 storage up to a capacity of 5,000 tons per year in Australia. The first phase is scheduled to be completed in summer 2025, which includes the feasibility study.
| Location | Australia |
| Climate zone | subtropical |
| Capacity | 5,000 TA CO2 |
| Status | feasibility study |
| CCU/CCS | CCS |
7. SANTOS, Alaska
DACMA technology is selected by Alaska CCS Consortium consisting of Santos, Repsol and ASRC Energy for a Carbon Capture Storage Hub study in Alaska – with a minimum of 50,000 TA to be covered and a possible target of 1 MTPA.
| Location | Alaska |
| Climate zone | subpolar |
| Capacity | 50,000 TA CO2 |
| Status | feasibility study |
| CCU/CCS | CCS |

“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!!!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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”.
