Thank you to Lisa Martine Jenkins and?Latitude Media for taking the time to connect with?Will Kain for a?glimpse into Avnos' plans. “Over the course of 2025 and headed into 2026 really, we are in commercialization mode,” Will said. “It’s putting steel in the ground; it’s deploying assets; it’s proving that the technology works at a commercially relevant scale, in relevant climates, and different potential commercial vectors to really build out our commercial muscle.” Catch the full piece below to see how?we're breaking ground on new projects, expanding use cases, and more.??? https://lnkd.in/eX2HeAsN
Last week, in a wood-paneled auditorium in a New York University campus highrise, Will Kain unveiled his direct air capture company’s first demonstration project. Project Brighton, he said, is being built in partnership with the U.S. Navy, and will capture 450 tons per year of carbon dioxide — and about 2,250 tons per year of water. “We have all our permits approved, and construction is now underway,” Kain told the Global Direct Air Capture Conference audience. “We anticipate that this unit will be online in the summer of 2025 so just a few short months away.” The project is the first announcement in what Kain called the “year of commercialization” for Avnos, Inc., a company that uses a “hybrid” approach to DAC, pulling both carbon and water from the air. “We call it ‘hybrid’ to reflect the fact that we capture both water and CO2 from the same airstream in the same system,” Kain told?Latitude Media?at the conference. “We’re the only ones doing that.” https://lnkd.in/eX2HeAsN
