Catch carbon faster
Trusted by responsible industry leaders taking action
Our Mission
We deliver meaningful impact for people and the planet by combining proven technology with earth's own carbon cycle.
Low-cost, modular DAC
We offer DAC solutions
at significantly lower prices.
Carbon credits
Purchase high-durability, high-confidence carbon removals.
Modular DAC units
Directly decarbonise your operations or develop projects that generate credits.
Food grade CO₂
Obtain a supply of pure carbon dioxide to preserve food, decaffeinate coffee, or carbonate beverages.
eFuels
Utilise air-captured carbon dioxide as a low-cost feedstock for sustainable fuels.
Projects
Our current projects demonstrate our speed to commercial deployment.
Project TENET is a pilot-scale demonstration of Airhive's DAC system. Testing has commenced on the system, and it will be fully operational in June 2024, at which point it will be the largest operating DAC system in the UK.
Through our partnership with Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, we are designing solutions to support the decarbonisation of beverage production by providing air-captured carbon dioxide. Our 1,000 tonne facility will be among the largest in Europe when installed in late 2024.
We are supplying our technology to Deep Sky, a Canadian project developer, for their Labs facility. We will deploy one of the largest systems in North America at Deep Sky’s facility in late 2024.
Our first scaled commercial facility will provide thousands of tonnes of premium durable carbon removal credits, a portion of which have been pre-purchased. The facility will be operational in late 2025.
From thousands of years, to minutes
We accelerate air capture using a proprietary application of fluidisation.
Through fluidisation, our DAC solution accelerates the Earth’s natural process of sequestering atmospheric carbon. Fluidisation is using a gas or liquid--in our case, air--to make static solid particles behave as a dynamic “fluid.”
Through our process, we reform carbon-absorbing minerals into small particles with high surface areas, which increases the capacity of the minerals to take up carbon dioxide. We then fluidise the particles, creating a turbulent sandstorm-like cloud in which the particles rapidly collide with the carbon dioxide molecules in the air.
Our system enables capture of 99% of carbon dioxide in the air blown through the system in less than one-tenth of one second. Using renewable electricity, captured carbon dioxide is separated from the minerals, which are regenerated for reuse in the capture process.
Our proprietary fluidised bed design limits the energy required to push air through the system. Our process is fully electrified, requiring no fossil fuels for operation.
The combination of a proven industrial process and low energy requirements translates into a significant cost advantage for our DAC technology.
The modular nature of our system allows for flexibility in system size to meet the specific needs of our customers and our own projects.

FAQ
Your questions answered
By optimising existing industrial technology, we have accelerated DAC R&D timelines and already proven our technology at pilot scale. By taking advantage of existing supply chains, we can rapidly manufacture and deploy our DAC systems for large customers from 2025.
Our fast capture process, enabled by fluidisation, is our key cost driver. This means we can use our industrial equipment more efficiently and minimise the space it requires, lowering capital and land costs.
The price of our DAC varies by deployment location due to differences in labour, energy, transport, and storage costs. Get in touch with us to understand pricing for your context.
Airhive’s DAC systems are modular units primarily made of steel. Our 1000 tonne units fit in shipping containers, facilitating transport and siting flexibility.
We have designed our systems to minimise impacts on surroundings. We use non-toxic minerals in our systems, and we have intentionally designed them to minimise land footprint and water use.
