Aircapture and 44 01 have won a $1 million recognition prize from the XPRIZE Carbon Removal Competition for their collaborative initiative, Project Hajar. This project successfully combined Aircapture's direct air capture technology with 44 01's mineralization process, converting carbon dioxide into stable rock formations.

Notably, the system achieved full functionality just 17 days after its deployment in the United Arab Emirates. The award highlights the project's performance and its potential for large-scale implementation.
