As more companies set aggressive decarbonization and net-zero goals, the role of technologies and processes that draw down excess levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide and help sequester those emissions by using it as a feedstock for another product is in the spotlight.
The growing realization: While many carbon capture and storage approaches such as those being pioneered by the likes of Carbon Engineering and Climeworks are still relatively untested and prohibitively expensive, there are ways to generate value and revenue from captured CO2 by turning it into a feedstock for some other thing — such as fuel or construction materials or even protein, for a start.
