About Thermaquatica: Our team has created the unique process, OHD, that converts waste biomass, we’re already producing anyway, into a water-soluble liquid. It looks like dark tea, and it contains almost all the carbon that was originally trapped in the biomass. We only need heat, water and oxygen to make it, and we can easily pump that solution into rocks, deep underground, where the microbes that live there eat it, and lock it away - for eons.
It’s paradigm shifting. A whole new way to think about removing carbon from the atmosphere. Its simple, scalable, carbon negative, and can be deployed almost anywhere there’s a source of waste, which is almost anywhere there are people! Instead of fighting natural processes, we take advantage of what nature has been doing all along - capturing carbon out of the atmosphere - then we put that carbon deep underground, where its locked away in the very rocks that we took it from in the first place.
Using this approach, we finally have the tool we need to start to undo centuries of carbon emissions to the atmosphere. The solution was in front of us all along: The waste we make from the plants we grow to feed ourselves.
