Center for Negative Carbon Emissions

The Center for Negative Carbon Emissions (CNCE) is led by Director Klaus S. Lackner, and was founded in the School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment (SSEBE) at Arizona State University in 2014. CNCE is advancing carbon management technologies that can capture carbon dioxide directly from ambient air in an outdoor operating environment. CNCE aims to demonstrate systems that over time increase in scope, reliability and efficiency while lowering the cost of carbon dioxide capture from air.
