Our promise to DAC companies
Direct air capture facilities are designed for uninterrupted operation to maximize annual CO₂ capture at lowest possible energy consumption.
Air handling equipment must therefore withstand prolonged mechanical loading, fluctuating environmental conditions and, in most cases, harsh outdoor environments.
NOVENCO axial fan systems deliver +80% energy efficiency airflow while reducing pressure losses and maintaining stable operating conditions.
Predictable airflow distribution supports effective CO₂ capture and helps DAC technologies scale from pilot installations to commercial facilities.
Real world installations and laboratory tested
Thousands of tons of C02 captured for good at the world’s first and largest DAC plant using our unrivaled fan technology.
Real world installations document optimized kW per m³/h airflow and extreme performance with high-efficiency electronically commutated magnet motors. This includes low maintenance in harsh environments.
Laboratory studies ensure flow simulations and system integration lead to optimal performance within each DAC configuration.
Performance measures
Compliance, safety and international standards
NOVENCO designs air handling systems to meet strict international standards and industrial requirements.
Relevant compliance may include:
Robust mechanical design and controlled start-up and shutdown procedures support safe operation. Full technical documentation is available for integration, validation and operation.
