Definition

The term, in context

AI-assisted draft · approved dataset

Ebb Carbon is a marine carbon dioxide removal technology that uses bipolar electrodialysis to split seawater into an acidic stream and an alkaline stream, then returns the alkaline stream to the ocean where it converts dissolved carbon dioxide into stable bicarbonate ions. This mimics, at accelerated speed, the natural rock-weathering process that has regulated atmospheric carbon over geological timescales.
