Singapore to build the world’s largest ocean-based carbon removal plant

Singapore is set to embark on a groundbreaking project to construct the world’s largest ocean-based carbon removal plant over the next 18 months. 

Backed by a successful pilot of the technology, the US$20 million full-scale demonstration plant, named Equatic-1, is a collaborative effort between Singapore’s national water agency PUB, UCLA, and Equatic, a startup founded by UCLA scientists.
