The Department of Energy announced up to $100 million in funding for carbon removal pilot projects Monday in an effort to advance technologies designed to suck CO2 directly out of the atmosphere.
The second pathway, mineralization projects, typically involve the use of crushed-up alkaline materials, like calcium or magnesium. When sprinkled over rocks, mixed into soil or incorporated into other kinds of chemical reactions, these minerals can help absorb carbon dioxide from the air.
