Anvil Capture Systems

Anvil Capture Systems

CO2 mineralisation for durable carbonate storage

Overview

Anvil Capture Systems removes CO2 by speeding up natural mineralisation of alkaline minerals into solid carbonates, stored on-site for permanent sequestration. It uses a proprietary low-energy reactor and feedstock preparation system to accelerate the reaction, with methods like spreading basalt on tea plantations to hasten weathering. The company differentiates itself through on-site storage and a credit-based model supported by Frontier pre-purchase agreements with buyers such as Stripe, Shopify, and Alphabet. Its goal is to deliver verifiable, durable CO2 removal credits at scale by accelerating mineral carbonation.
