At Arca, we pull carbon dioxide from the air and store it permanently as rock. To do this at scale, we partner with the minerals industry to implement our technology at mines. These are the same mines that are producing the minerals (nickel, for example) necessary for the transition to a clean energy future. Arca’s founders are leaders in the field of carbon capture in mine tailings with more than 20 years of experience in innovation and research.
We can still reverse climate change if we act fast, and develop solutions that scale. For our part, we capture and store CO2 permanently by speeding up the natural process of carbon mineralization. And because our technology uses the waste from critical metal mines, it keeps a light footprint while supporting the clean energy transition.
