Company profile

researched Aug 2026

AirMyne is a carbon removal technology company staffed by engineers and scientists focused on mitigating climate change. Its platform captures CO2 directly from ambient air and can also be applied at point-of-emissions, where CO2 concentrations are in the 1-10% range, which the company positions as a route to nearer-term emissions reductions.

The system is described as engineered for maximal uptime and 24/7 operation, and comprises field-ready equipment, durable low-cost chemicals, pumps and piping for movement of raw materials through the system, non-hazardous system components and process chemistry intended to be operator- and community-friendly, and an energy-agnostic regeneration step. The company frames engineered CO2 removal as infrastructure needed alongside a mixed clean and fossil energy system, as a means of managing atmospheric CO2 overshoot, and as preparation for tightening emissions regulation.

Business model

AirMyne offers its carbon removal technology and platform to corporations and governments seeking to manage and reduce CO2 emissions.
