Carbon Herald just published Aquarry Launches Its First Mine Remediation Pilot Site In Wyoming. Carbon Herald reports that Aquarry, a Colorado-based deep tech climate startup, has launched its first mine remediation pilot in Wyoming. The company is developing a technology aimed at treating legacy mine sites, and this pilot marks the move from lab and bench work to a real field location. Aquarry has positioned its approach at the intersection of mine cleanup and carbon management, arguing that remediation of mine water and waste can be paired with durable carbon storage. The announcement frames the Wyoming site as a proving ground for operational performance ahead of any larger deployment. Carbon Herald does not provide detailed figures on site scale, tonnage, or timeline in the summary available to us. ...

Carbon Herald just published Nasdaq Launches New Carbon Issuance Calendar In Collaboration With Relae. Carbon Herald reports that Nasdaq, working with carbon market data firm Relae, has released the Nasdaq Carbon Issuance Calendar. The tool is described as a one-stop platform where buyers can see upcoming carbon credit issuances in one place rather than tracking announcements across registries and project developers. Nasdaq already has a footprint in carbon removal through its majority stake in the Puro.earth registry, and this calendar extends its push into market infrastructure and data services. The outlet frames the launch as a transparency and planning tool aimed at corporate buyers and intermediaries. Details on coverage, pricing for users, and which registries or credit types are included were not spelled out in the material we saw. ...

The Carbon Curve just published Introducing Carbon Curve Intelligence. The Carbon Curve reports that Na’im Merchant, who tracks the sector at Carbon Removal Canada, has launched Carbon Curve Intelligence at intelligence.carboncurve.co after initially building it as a personal tool. The system checks roughly 200 sources each day, including news sites, company newsrooms, government pages, podcasts and newsletters, plus new research literature. Rather than republishing articles, it extracts structured fields such as buyer, seller, tonnage, pathway and date, and stores each as a dated record with a link to the original source. The database currently holds thousands of records, among them hundreds of deals and policies across dozens of countries. Search and saving are free; a Pro tier adds features, chiefly a plugin that connects the database to AI assistants like Claude or ChatGPT. The tool does not rate or rank companies, and most records are extracted by AI and published automatically, with a feedback form for corrections. ...

Carbon Herald just published Carbon Curve Intelligence: A New Free Tool That Tracks The CDR Sector. Carbon Herald covers the launch this week of Carbon Curve Intelligence, a new free tool designed to track different parts of the carbon dioxide removal sector. The outlet frames the release as a resource for people trying to follow a fast-moving and fragmented market, where project announcements, offtake deals, policy developments and company news are spread across many sources. The piece presents the tool as a sector-wide tracker rather than a single-pathway database, positioning it alongside the growing set of CDR market intelligence products. The material available to us is headline-level and does not spell out the tool’s data sources, coverage boundaries, update cadence, or who is behind the Carbon Curve brand, so readers should go to the original article and the tool itself for those specifics. ...

Carbon Herald just published Substrate Biochar Launches First Production Site In South Africa. Carbon Herald reports that Substrate Biochar, a company focused on industrial biochar solutions for Africa, has announced the launch of its first production site, located in South Africa. The announcement marks the company’s move from planning into physical operations on the continent. Biochar is produced by heating biomass in a low-oxygen environment, and the resulting stable carbon can be applied to soils or used in industrial products, which is why it has become one of the more commonly credited engineered carbon removal pathways. The article covers the site launch and the company’s framing of its role in the African biochar market, and readers should go to the full piece for any details on capacity, feedstock, and intended offtake. ...

Marginal Carbon just published Will we cool the earth?. Marginal Carbon’s Robert Höglund attended the Global Risk and Stabilization Summit in Reykjavík, a first-of-its-kind gathering of roughly 250 people working on approaches that might stabilize Earth’s climate, including stratospheric aerosol injection, marine cloud brightening and ice sheet interventions. He describes a small field of around a thousand people, funded at only tens of millions of dollars per year, with organizer Renaissance Philanthropy alongside Outlier Projects, SRM360, The Degrees Initiative, Reflective and ARIA. A speaker likened its current standing to carbon removal in 2015, when CDR was widely dismissed as geoengineering. The piece singles out Earth’s declining reflectivity as the summit’s most alarming theme, noting that aerosol pollution masks an estimated 0.5°C of warming with uncertainty spanning near zero to about 1°C. ...

Carbon Herald just published Skytree, Galetech, And Mwahera Partner On Direct Air Capture For E-Fuel Production In Kenya. Carbon Herald reports that Skytree, a Netherlands-based developer of modular direct air capture units, has signed a strategic partnership with Galetech Energy Developments and Mwahera Green Hydrogen aimed at e-fuel production in Kenya. The arrangement pairs Skytree’s atmospheric CO2 capture with green hydrogen from Mwahera, with Galetech bringing renewable energy project development experience to the mix. The stated goal is to combine captured carbon and hydrogen into synthetic fuels, positioning Kenya’s renewable resources as a base for low-carbon fuel supply. The piece frames the deal as an early-stage collaboration rather than a construction-ready project, and no capacity figures, capital commitments, or delivery timeline are detailed in the announcement as covered. ...

Carbon Herald just published Sirona’s Furu Is Now The First DACCS Project Backed By The EU Innovation Fund. Carbon Herald reports that Sirona Technologies has secured a grant of up to EUR 9.1 million (roughly USD 10.2 million) from the EU Innovation Fund for its Furu project. According to the outlet, this is the first time the fund, which is financed by EU Emissions Trading System revenues, has backed a direct air capture with carbon storage (DACCS) project. The award places Sirona, a Belgium-based DAC developer, among a small group of European removal projects receiving direct EU support rather than relying solely on voluntary market offtakes. The piece frames the decision as a signal that the Commission is starting to treat engineered removals as eligible infrastructure alongside industrial decarbonisation and clean hydrogen. ...

CDR.fyi just published Types of CDR Purchases: A New Section in the CDR.fyi Buyer's Guide. CDR.fyi has published a new section of its Buyer’s Guide covering the four main structures used to buy durable carbon removal: spot, forward, pre-purchase and offtake. The authors, Shrishti Sinha and Alexander Rink, anchor the piece in CDR.fyi’s own data showing roughly 50.5 million tonnes contracted to date against about 1.7 million tonnes delivered as of October 19, 2026. Each structure is explained with a real deal, including SAP and Climeworks for spot, Klima Foundation and Exomad Green for forward, Shopify and Mati Carbon for pre-purchase, and Microsoft and North Star Carbon Solutions for offtake. The section also covers options and capacity reservations, procurement approaches such as RFPs and aggregated buying, direct versus intermediated purchasing, a decision table and an FAQ on bankability and ex-ante versus ex-post credits. ...

Carbon Herald just published New CATF Tool Enables Users To Evaluate Biomass Carbon Removal Protocols. Carbon Herald reports that the Clean Air Task Force (CATF) has released a new tool designed to help users evaluate biomass carbon removal protocols. The tool targets the growing set of methodologies covering pathways such as biomass carbon removal and storage (BiCRS), bioenergy with carbon capture (BECCS) and biochar, where crediting rules differ widely across registries. The outlet frames the release as a way for buyers, developers and policymakers to compare how different protocols handle key quality questions for biomass-based removals. The available text does not specify which protocols are covered, what scoring criteria the tool applies, or how outputs are presented, so the full article is the place to look for the actual feature set and CATF’s stated intent. ...
