Direct Air Capture (DAC) ist eine technische Methode zur Entfernung von Kohlendioxid (CO2) aus der Atmosphäre, die darauf abzielt, CO2 aus der Atmosphäre zu entfernen. Während natürliche Methoden wie Aufforstung und Renaturierung von Mooren zur CO2-Entfernung beitragen, erfordert die Erreichung der Klimaziele den Einsatz von DAC-Technologie. DAC-Anlagen werden derzeit in den USA entwickelt, mit dem Ziel, wirtschaftliche CO2-Entfernung zu Kosten von 100 US-Dollar pro Tonne CO2 zu erreichen. Die aktuellen geschätzten Kosten für DAC-Technologien liegen jedoch zwischen 500 und 3.000 US-Dollar pro Tonne CO2. Trotz der höheren Kosten gewinnt die DAC-Technologie das Interesse von Ölunternehmen und wird für die Produktion von eFuels in Betracht gezogen. Das Schweizer Unternehmen Climeworks ist ein bedeutender Akteur auf dem Gebiet der DAC und betreibt zwei DAC-Anlagen in Island. Auch andere Unternehmen wie Porsche erkunden die Integration der DAC-Technologie in ihre Produktionsprozesse. Der Standort von DAC-Anlagen ist wichtig, wobei Regionen mit reichlich erneuerbaren Energiequellen besonders geeignet sind. Darüber hinaus wird vorgeschlagen, dass kleinere dezentrale DAC-Anlagen in bestehende Gebäude und Industriestandorte integriert werden könnten. Die wirtschaftliche Machbarkeit der DAC-Technologie hängt von Faktoren wie dem Preis von Emissionszertifikaten und dem Vergleich mit anderen Emissionsminderungstechnologien ab.
