Generation 3 is a direct air capture design from Climeworks that draws ambient air across a solid sorbent material which chemically binds atmospheric carbon dioxide, then drives off the concentrated gas by heating the sorbent with low-temperature heat so the CO2 can be measured, transported, and stored underground in mineralized rock.
