CarbonCapture Inc. subsidiary True North Carbon is constructing a direct air capture (DAC) system in Alberta, Canada, it expects to go online by the end of October. The project will have the ability to capture 2,000 tons of carbon dioxide per year at full capacity, making it the biggest system of its kind operating in the country.
