Direct air capture, Indoor CO2 removal, CO2 mineralisation.Abstract
Direct air capture technology (DAC) is integral to achieving carbon emission targets. This paper briefly analyses the application of DAC technology in indoor CO2 removal and CO2 mineralisation. Thanks to the elevated concentration of CO2 in the air (1000ppm) and the integrated DAC unit and air conditioning unit, the indoor CO2 removal system significantly reduces energy consumption. CO2 mineralisation, combined with DAC technology, offers a safe solution for permanent carbon storage and the possibility of obtaining a valuable end product by selecting the right mineralised feedstock. Future research should continue to focus on the development of adsorbent materials and the integration of CO2 capture with subsequent applications to achieve sustainability.
