The challenge of Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) in marine biomass sinking has slowed industry progress, with many companies failing to deliver transparency. Instead of repeating these mistakes, we’re making MRV our top priority. We are collaborating with carbon credit issuers, leading researchers, and a global network of scientists to rigorously test verification frameworks before scaling up.

Unlike other methods that concentrate carbon deposition in small areas, our FloCS system spreads sinking biomass over vast ocean regions, minimizing ecological disruption.

• Rapid Sinking: Our system grows and naturally sinks quickly beyond the thermocline, preventing remineralization in the water column.

• Long-Term Storage: The carbon reaches deep-sea sediments, locking it away for thousands to millions of years.

• pH Buffering: At the calcium compensation depth, our calcifying sinkers dissolve, helping counteract acidification from microbial degradation.

This approach ensures high sequestration efficiency while safeguarding marine ecosystems.

Most existing methods propose dumping carbon in concentrated zones, risking severe disruption to deep-sea ecosystems. Our approach is different:

• Distributed Deployment: We spread units across hundreds to thousands of kilometers, creating a natural buffer to prevent localized ecological strain.

• Science-First Approach: Our team is committed to rigorous research and data review to ensure our work is scientifically backed and environmentally responsible.

• Thorough Testing Before Scaling: We will analyze ecosystem interactions, carbon flux, and sediment impact before any large-scale deployment to prevent unintended consequences.

By integrating best scientific practices and continuous monitoring, we ensure deep-sea carbon sequestration remains a safe, sustainable solution.

Carbon disperses randomly in the atmosphere—a fundamental law of physics known as entropy. High-energy solutions like Direct Air Capture (DAC) fight against physics, requiring over 10 GJ per ton of CO₂ removed.

• Nature Already Removes Carbon Efficiently: Macroalgae, forests, and soils naturally concentrate CO₂.

• No Massive Infrastructure Needed: Instead of building energy-intensive capture systems, we sink biomass that nature already sequestered.

• Highest Efficiency: Studies show marine biomass sinking is one of the most energy-efficient and scalable carbon removal methods available.

It’s time to rethink our approach—physics is on the side of nature-aligned solutions.
