ABOUT US

x/44 delivers low-cost, modular, electrochemical direct air capture

to catalyze carbon dioxide utilization and removal.

What’s in a name? x/44 (pronounced “x over 44”) is inspired by the mathematical and scientific principles that boldly empower its solution. The name’s structure is that of a fraction, highlighting both the immediate threat of rising concentrations of COâ‚‚ in the atmosphere and the solution through fractional enrichment. The name’s denominator, “44”, is the molecular weight of COâ‚‚, while the numerator, “x”, is the most common mathematical variable, again calling the technology’s ability to tailor concentrations as needed.

OUR MISSION & VALUES

  x/44 has a critical responsibility to restore the delicate balance of our atmosphere while also providing industry with a stable supply of atmospheric carbon dioxide (COâ‚‚) and green hydrogen (Hâ‚‚). 

 

x/44 values transparency, humanity, and action, and is dedicated to achieving carbon dioxide removal at an unprecedented scale to assure a just, inhabitable future for all people and life forms on Earth.
