Permanent carbon storage in marine sediments, optimized for supply chain decarbonization.

THE CHALLENGE

Current carbon removals are not scaling fast enough to meet climate goals. Permanent carbon removal solutions are costly and energy-intensive, with limited scalability. Nature-based solutions lack permanence.

The ocean covers over 2/3 of our planet and is the largest carbon sink on Earth. Every year, the ocean absorbs about 30% of all CO₂ emissions released into the atmosphere.   

At the bottom of the ocean, there is a layer of sediment, that stores organic carbon for millions of years. At SinkCo Labs, we source biomass from agricultural waste (i.e. nutshells, maize, sawdust).

This biomass is ground, mixed with seawater, and injected into ocean sub-sediments using a patent-pending micro-injection system.

SinkCo Labs takes a process that occurs in nature and accelerates it – to store carbon safely and permanently in ocean sediment.

Processing biomass

Photosynthesis captures CO₂ into plant biomass. Biomass has value extracted and SinkCo Lab’s collects remnant biomass.

Transporting biomass locally

Biomass is transported via land & sea.

Injecting biomass into sediment

A biomass slurry is injected into the anoxic layer of marine sediments using SinkCo Lab’s patent-pending technology. 

Nature-based conversion occurs: biomass is permanently sequestered by limiting oxygen exposure time and diffusive transport.
