![Workers are seen at Calgary-based Carbon Engineering's first direct air capture plant in Squamish, B.C., on Wednesday October 7, 2015. The plant extracts carbon dioxide directly from atmospheric air in a closed-loop industrial process. A pellet reactor system is used to take the carbon dioxide that has been absorbed from the air into liquid in an air contractor and transform it into a solid pellet which can be dried and moved to a calciner for carbon dioxide release and purification.

Carbon Engineering's groundbreaking plant is one of many projects hoping to help in the fight against climate change by turning its main driver — carbon dioxide — into a useful product that can be profitably removed from the atmosphere.
