Brineworks opens Direct Air Capture demo plant at Amsterdam Science Park, targeting sub-€100 per tonne CO₂ removal
Amsterdam-based climate tech startup Brineworks has opened a Direct Air Capture (DAC) demonstration plant at Amsterdam Science Park, which went live on 4 June 2026. The plant can capture up to 100 tonnes of CO₂ per year and is the first operational proof of technology designed to capture CO₂ from the atmosphere at below €100 per tonne. The system integrates DAC with green hydrogen production, representing a significant milestone in scalable carbon removal technology.
