About DAC plants
A Direct Air Capture (DAC) plant capture CO₂ from the atmosphere using sorbent-based modules. The CO₂ is then released with thermal/electrical energy, compressed, and injected into basalt formations for permanent geological storage.
The problem
These plants consume a large amount of energy for heating and compression and generate vast amounts of data. The absence of predictive maintenance and real-time data visualization poses a significant challenge, as climate conditions, unplanned downtime, and the gradual degradation of sorbents all have a major impact on process optimization.
How we solve it?
Intemic connects to DAC plant systems to ingest and validate real-time data like air flow, pressure differential, and energy use, enabling operational twins that model sorbent degradation, thermal efficiency, and climate impact.
It optimizes desorption schedules based on intraday energy tariffs, predicts failures in fans and compressors, and automates net CO₂ removal reporting with full signal-to-metric traceability.
Key results
Up to 10% more CO₂ captured within the same installed capacity with cycle optimization.
Up to 15% reduction on specific energy (kWh/tCO₂) through thermic and operational optimization.
50% time reduction to prepare MRV (Monitoring, Reporting and Verification) reports.
