Here are the key points on the importance of CO\u2082 for indoor farming:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>CO\u2082 is essential for plant photosynthesis and growth<\/strong>. Plants use CO\u2082 from the air and convert it into sugars that fuel their growth and development. If CO\u2082 levels drop below 250 parts per million (ppm), plant growth will stop.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Indoor farming operations need to replenish the CO\u2082<\/strong> that is removed from the farm during harvesting. When plants are harvested, the carbon-rich plant matter is removed, depleting the CO\u2082 in the growing environment. Growers must actively supplement CO\u2082 to maintain optimal levels for continued plant growth.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Proper CO\u2082 supplementation can boost plant yields<\/strong> by around 30%. Most indoor farms aim to maintain CO\u2082 levels between 800-1200 ppm, as this range optimizes the CO\u2082 uptake and utilization by plants.<\/li>\n<li><strong>CO\u2082 can also be used as a natural pest control method<\/strong> in indoor farms. High CO\u2082 concentrations of 5% or more over four days can kill insects without harming the plants.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Managing CO\u2082 levels is critical for the success of indoor farming operations. Growers use methods like burning fuels, releasing bottled CO\u2082, or using decomposition processes to supplement CO\u2082 and maximize plant growth, productivity, and pest control.<\/p>\n<p>The two main methods of enriching CO\u2082 levels in indoor farming facilities – burning fossil fuels like natural gas or propane, and releasing compressed CO\u2082 from tanks – are not environmentally friendly for the following reasons:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Burning fossil fuels<\/strong> releases significant amounts of CO\u2082 and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change. While effective at supplementing CO\u2082 levels for plant growth, this method has a large carbon footprint.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Releasing compressed CO\u2082 from tanks<\/strong>, while simpler, is less cost-effective and energy-efficient than burning fuels. Although it doesn’t directly produce additional emissions, the production and transportation of pure CO\u2082 tanks still have an environmental impact.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Both methods rely on non-renewable energy sources and do not align with the goal of sustainable, eco-friendly indoor farming. They fail to address the “Achilles’ heel” of high energy consumption in these controlled environments. To mitigate the environmental impact, indoor farms should explore <strong>alternative CO\u2082 enrichment methods<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What is DAC?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Direct air capture (DAC), as the name suggests, involves the direct <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ceagworld.com\/greenhouse-produce\/how-greenhouses-can-use-carbon-capture-to-improve-sustainability\/\">removal of CO\u2082 from ambient air<\/a>. Unlike traditional carbon capture technologies that focus on capturing emissions from point sources like power plants, DAC systems target CO\u2082 molecules present in the atmosphere, irrespective of their source. This distinguishes DAC as a versatile and proactive approach to addressing carbon emissions.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Key Components of DAC<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Air Capturing Process (ACPs)<\/strong>: This consists of specialized materials, typically sorbents or absorbents, designed to selectively capture CO\u2082 from the surrounding air. ACP employs various mechanisms such as chemical adsorption or physical adsorption to effectively trap CO2 molecules.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regeneration Processes<\/strong>: Once captured, the CO\u2082 needs to be removed from the sorbent material. This step is crucial for regenerating the sorbent and releasing concentrated CO\u2082 or CO\u2082-enriched air for subsequent utilization or sequestration. The regeneration can be done using different methods, e.g. heat, low pressure, chemical processing, or a combination of both.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Benefits of Direct Air Capture<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Resource Utilization<\/strong>: Captured CO\u2082 can be utilized in various industrial processes, contributing to the circular economy, and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Additionally, in the realm of indoor farming, greenhouses, and vertical farms, the captured CO2 can enhance plant growth by increasing the concentration of CO\u2082, which is a critical component of photosynthesis. This not only improves crop yields and efficiency but also supports sustainable agricultural practices by reducing the need for external carbon sources.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Carbon Neutrality<\/strong>: DAC offers a pathway to achieve carbon neutrality by actively removing CO\u2082 from the atmosphere and offsetting emissions from various sources and industries. By incorporating DAC into indoor farming systems, such as greenhouses and vertical farms, the captured CO\u2082 can be recycled back into the agricultural cycle, further promoting a sustainable loop. This integration helps to balance the carbon equation by both sequestering carbon and using it to foster plant growth, thereby contributing to a more holistic approach to carbon management and environmental stewardship.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Versatility<\/strong>: Unlike traditional carbon capture technologies, DAC is not limited to specific point sources, making it applicable in diverse settings and geographical locations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Climate Resilience<\/strong>: DAC provides a proactive approach to climate change mitigation, offering a means to directly address atmospheric CO\u2082 concentrations and their associated impacts.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_168496\" style=\"width: 557px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-168496\" class=\"wp-image-168496\" src=\"https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-300x188.jpg\" alt=\"The Direct Carbon team at GreenTech Amsterdam. | Photo: Direct Carbon\" width=\"547\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-320x200.jpg 320w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-480x300.jpg 480w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-800x500.jpg 800w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-330x206.jpg 330w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-115x72.jpg 115w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-576x360.jpg 576w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-922x576.jpg 922w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-1152x720.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-16x9.jpg 16w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-85x53.jpg 85w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited-150x94.jpg 150w, https:\/\/ceagworld.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/19100805\/DSC_0638_edited.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 547px) 100vw, 547px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-168496\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Direct Carbon Team at GreenTech Amsterdam | Photo: Direct Carbon<\/p><\/div>\n<h3><strong>Direct Carbon<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/direct-carbon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Direct Carbon<\/a> is a Swedish company that provides solutions for CO\u2082 capture from the air and release in indoor farming facilities.
