| Abstract |
Achieving Net-Zero emissions is critical to the stability of Earth's current fragile climate. However, traditional carbon capture systems are hindered by high costs and operational rigidity. This project presents MeDAC, a modular electrochemical Direct Air Capture (DAC) system utilizing Distributed Optimal Energy Scheduling to coordinate carbon capture cycles with volatile renewable energy. MeDAC aims to provide a practical, durable solution that is more efficient than standard DAC methods, transforming carbon removal into a responsive and scalable tool for real-world deployment. |
