Why Carbon Free Earth is getting involved
Capturing Carbon Dioxide from the ambient air is what we need, but what do you do with it once it's captured?
The MineralStation is ready to take the Captured CO2 to the next level.
Through our Patent Pending Process
The mixture of the Feedstocks gives the Durable Carbon Building Mineral
- 31% CO2 by Volume - Verified by University of Washington 2025
- Lighter then conventional cement
- Stronger than conventional cement
- Can be mixed in with any aggregate
- Can be colored "no matter when it is mixed
The MineralStation is available in several sizes depending on the amount of Captured CO2.
- MS 10 - 10 cubic feet per 20 minute batch, +/- 4 tons of CO2 processed in a day, +/- 12 tons of Nescrete a day
- MS 50 - 50 cubic feet per 20 minute batch, +/- 16 tons of CO2 processed in a day, +/- 50 tons of Nescrete per day
- MS 100 - 100 cubic feet per 20 minute batch, +/- 30 tons of CO2 processed in a day, +/- 90 tons of Nescrete per day
The MineralStation can process the CO2 emitted from just about every capture system available today. The purity of the captured CO2 needs to be a minimum of 90% Pure. The process will also Permanently Sequester all other VOCs.
**The system can be fully Solar Powered w/ energy storage system
'Nescrete' - also known as Nesquehonite
Nesquehonite is a Natural Crystal Rock
Named after its type locality at Nesquehoning, Carbon County, Pennsylvania, USA.
What is Nesquehonite?
Forms elongated fibers, often around a centerpiece, creating a rosette-like structure
•Considered a promising material for permanent and safe CO2 sequestration
•Has potential use as a supplementary material in "green" building materials
•Can be synthesized as an energy-efficient product for CO2 sequestration
By using the natural process of Nesquehonite and mixing CO2 and Alkalis to produce a Durable Carbon Material ‘Nescrete’ gives:
•Higher psi rating for strength
•Lighter in weight then the normal concrete or clay products
•Lasting longer then the normal
•Environmentally friendly
•Fire resistance
Recyclable after its Many Uses
Capturing Solar Power and Storing
Energy Storage System by Joule Case
The Sigma Stackable Storage system is an advanced, scalable battery solution designed to meet a wide range of energy storage needs. With a base capacity of 3.97 kWh, it can be expanded up to 27.8 kWh, ensuring flexibility and adaptability for various applications.
Giving the omDAC enough power to run 13+ hours of non-sunlight hours
By using solar and the Energy Storage System the omDAC has a Climate Footprint of Zero grid energy usage.
Benefits of using Solar Power:
- Solar energy is a clean, green source of power that doesn't produce air pollution or greenhouse gases during operation.
- It's renewable and sustainable, relying on the abundant energy from the sun. Low maintenance, typically cleaning twice a year.
- Energy independence:
Solar reduces dependence on the grid and other energy sources, providing energy security and potentially keeping power on during grid outages (especially with battery storage). - Versatility:
Solar works in a variety of climates and locations across the country, even in areas with less direct sunlight. - Long lifespan:
Solar panels can last 25-30 years or more, providing long-term benefits and reducing the need for frequent replacements. - Environmental benefits:
Using solar energy reduces reliance on fossil fuels, decreasing carbon emissions and other pollutants.
The on-site modular Direct Air Capture (omDAC) System for CO2 Capture
The omDAC is designed to collect 1 ton of CO2 per day per unit. Solar Powered which gives the omDAC a Zero-Footprint Coming within the First Quarters of 2025
The omDAC sits on an estimated spot of 20-feet by 8-feet with the solar panels on top of an 8-foot Connex box. The internals are where the technology really stands out. Collecting the CO2 through the ambient air, then pulled through the system, and mixed into a bi-carbonate ready for MINERALIZATION.
*Patent Pending
Benefits of the omDAC
- *Minimum space required
- *Collecting an estimated 1 ton of CO2 per day per unit
- *Low entry cost with low monthly payments
- *High return on investment
- *10-year Warranty and Maintenance Included
- *Carbon Free Earth Monitors everything that's going on within the omDAC and Tracks the "Lifecycle of the Captured CO2"
- *Can be placed on 'unusable land'
- *Ease of Permitting – Usually over-the-counter permits
- *Hands-off approach for the Clients
- *Helping Clients get closer to their ‘Climate Goals’
The omDAC Micro-grid
By adding multiple omDACs you are creating a Micro-Grid Ecosystem for the capture of CO2
Finding CO2 is not hard when you know the biggest emitters of CO2 based on the DOE's calculations via power usage:
- Industrial
- Buildings
Transportation is another major emitter of CO2:
- Passenger vehicles
- Commercial Vehicles
- Planes, Trains and other commercial carriers
Basically any fossil fuel burning emitters, the omDAC can capture
the CO2 with the right placement.
Where does most of the emittance of CO2 happen? Within the city!
Carbon Free Earth designed the omDAC to be compact and modular to address this problem within the city by cleaning the air, Where We Work and Live, Not waiting for the pollution to make its way to the 'Rural Areas' and digging a hole to pump the CO2 into the Earth.
Financial Module of the omDAC
Leasing available up to 10 Years
Carbon Free Earth is working with Streamline Business Finance in making the omDACs entry and monthly payment low enough for everyone (OAC). Carbon Free Earth shares in the Carbon Credits and the selling of the Durable Carbon Products to keep the monthly payment low and the return high. Making it possible for a positive cash flow every month.
It is possible to become Net-Zero Profitable
Durable Carbon Material 'Nescrete'
Nescrete Material are an Alkali that sequesters CO2 for thousands of years.
The products range from sand, rock (of all sizes), pavers to roof tops. Nescrete has a higher psi rating than concrete and the weight is approximately 30% lighter than concrete or other non-structural products. The mineralization system will be located within a 5-10 miles radius of the omDACs that is also solar powered. *Patent Pending
Durable Carbon Credits Values
Methodologies
Most companies use only one methodology. Carbon Free Earth uses Two Methods:
- Carbon Capture and Storage (DACCS)
- Engineered Carbonation of Mineral Waste (Mineralization)
Giving Durable Carbon Credits:
By converting CO2 into durable products, the process can generate carbon credits. These credits are a form of certification that a certain amount of CO2 has been captured and stored, contributing to
Climate Change Mitigation Efforts
Carbon Free Earth's Durable Carbon Credit Value
Pricing of the Durable Carbon Credit
CDR.FYI is a third-party Carbon Credit 'Open-Source Project' that looks at all types of credits that are available for purchase. The price of Carbon Credits range dramatically. The Carbon Marketplace is a voluntary market, except for California which has the 'Cap-and-Trade Program'. Several companies become brokers and raise the price on the Carbon Credits.
Based on the values shown Free Earth believes with their TWO methodologies combined, gives a value over $1,500.
Carbon Free Earth has determined that the value for their
. Durable Carbon Credit is $1,000 per Credit.
Pre-selling these credits with Insurance program (Like Kita Insurance) eliminates RISKS (Click on Kita's logo on the homepage for what they cover) for the buyer of the Durable Carbon Credit and will allow Carbon Free Earth to move faster to deployment of the omDACs and the Mineralization Process.
