100,000 tonnes turned into stone
This week, Carbfix reached a total of 100,000 tonnes of CO2 (65%) and H2S (35%) turned into stone! That means 100,000 metric tonnes less of unwanted gases in our atmosphere. This is an important milestone in the fight against climate crises! Watch Carbfix CEO on our last WeDontHaveTime conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aW42PZN157A&t=12828s

Thank you for sharing our achievement! Carbfix aims to reach 1 billion tonnes of permanently stored CO₂ in 2030! Here are some answers to the questions in the comments: I wonder how energy intensive this process is. Can anyone share a link to show this, before I search myself? - About 300 kWh/ton for the overall value chain (on-site capture from power plant emissions, transport to injection site and injection). Discussion on energy use e.g. in these papers:https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1750583617309593?dgcid=coauthor and https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1750583615000778 I wonder how many trees this is equivalent to? - Current annual capacity equals roughly to about 55 thousand trees. Need to know more. This is interesting! - Thank you! You can find more information on or new website www.carbfix.com Extremely energy-intensive!! Sometimes they have to build a gas-powered power station next to the Carbon Capture Facility(CCF). Very very inefficient. Most of the time oil and gas producers are the main buyers of the services. They even use this Gasified Carbon to bring more oil from the rig as Carbon makes it lighter to go up through the pipe. - See reply on energy use above. On-site capture and mineral storage is actually energy efficient. For direct air capture of CO2 from the atmosphere, energy use goes an order of magnitude up. Carbfix does not operate DAC units but collaborates with Swiss company Climeworks for mineral storage of the CO2 they capture.

@Rentzhog Carbfix is based in Iceland, Iceland has a lot of thermo electric plants. This is a good thing. They use it to capture carbon.

Extremely energy-intensive!! Sometimes they have to build a gas-powered power station next to the Carbon Capture Facility(CCF). Very very inefficient. Most of the time oil and gas producers are the main buyers of the services. They even use this Gasified Carbon to bring more oil from the rig as Carbon makes it lighter to go up through the pipe. Carbon Capture is just another greenwashing tool for repeat offender climate abusers. Unbelievable right! 👉 listen to this podcast. Robert from Fully charged talks with Mark Z. Jacobson. Skip to 20:10 min for the Carbon capture part. https://podcasts.apple.com/se/podcast/the-fully-charged-plus-podcast/id1449137711?l=en&i=1000511080659

@Hasnine, if we can’t get CCS to work, we can never stay under 2 degrees. It is greenwashing when oil companies talk about CCS. It is climate action when a company actually does it. Read more about Carbfix at www.carbfix.com

@Rentzhog I am on the same page with you on this. If CCS is powered by renewables and operated by environmental entities, it is helping towards the goal. But the technology is very expensive and many of its tech IP is owned/ funded by oil and gas manufacturers. Carbfix could be different but they do not represent the whole of CCS. My argument is, CCS can not be used as a justification for further oil exploration or ramp-up of oil production or coal-powered electricity generation.

@Hasnine Not found of that professors comment 20:10 into the pod. If you use the word ”scam” you imply that the company is trying to fool you with bad intentions. If you are to use that type of language, you really have to be sure about it. I think they are trying to take a step in a right direction and are contributing. I would like that professor to explain what ”proof” he has.

@thomas_tienso Looks like you did found the topic after 20:10 into the pod. I listened to it again. The professor explained very clearly. But you absolutely in the right to ask for proof or evidence. I'm sure you will find him on Twitter. Share that with us.
