Air is 0.04% CO₂. Seawater is roughly 150 times more concentrated.

01
No sorbents, no additives

The process runs on seawater and renewable power, with no by-products.

02
The ocean does the rest

Returned seawater re-absorbs CO₂. Third-party measurements at Captura's pilot ranged from 65% to 98%.

03
Built on existing infrastructure

DOC shares intake and outfall with power plants, desalination plants and ports.
