CARBON REMOVAL, WITH INTEGRITY

What we do
BRILLIANT PLANET USES ALGAE TO REMOVE CO2 FROM THE ATMOSPHERE
We produce algae and convert it into stable biomass. We then bury that biomass, where it remains stable for thousands of years. This removes CO₂ permanently from the atmosphere. In the process we also deacidify vast amounts of seawater, strengthening the local coastal ecosystem.
Company's story
Our Specialty
CARBON REMOVAL QUALITY
Brilliant Planet takes pride in pioneering cost-effective solutions for carbon capture and we have a clear path to reducing the cost of carbon capture to below $100 per ton at scale.
By utilizing an inherently efficient carbon capture methodology and leveraging abundant, naturally available resources, we're able to provide an affordable, high-impact solution to carbon dioxide removal.
TECHNOLOGY
Brilliant Planet’s ponds covered thousands of square meters each. They are also lined with a highly reflective white geomembrane and pond operations are tightly controlled. This means that the cell concentration (light attenuation), depth of pond (light path), and spectral properties of the seawater are well defined and actively measured. Combined with incident light field measurements, this provides an unprecedented opportunity to monitor the ponds remotely with new multispectral sensors platforms such as NASA’s PACE mission, Pixxel and Planet’s Carbon Mapper. These provide high resolution, species-specific information throughout the seasons.
