DAC Example: Climeworks • Minimize energy need: o removing 1t of CO 2 requires filtering ~2M m 3 of ambient air → system must be highly optimized, air resistance minimized • Cost and time to build system prototypes • Modeled 500 geometry variations of the air collector to perfect design • Develop and design collector system for capturing, filtering and concentrating CO 2 gas from the atmosphere, to help mitigate global warming • Vision: scale up to 1Gt/yr of CO 2 removed Customer Goals Challenge Solution Benefit • Modeling 5-10x faster than building 1 physical prototype • Time savings is cost savings for Climeworks, its customers, and for the planet by avoiding the high price of climate change
