We are SkytreeSkytree enables a transition to a world with cleaner Air for everyone. We do this by developing and deploying smart technology that captures atmospheric carbon dioxide, enabling its use or storage to combat climate change and aid society and businesses around the world.Born out of the European Space Agency (ESA), we are a global team of highly talented scientists, engineers and business professionals, supported by an experienced management team. Our working culture is based on a dynamic and smart approach to business with an open and understanding attitude to others and a desire to expand the boundaries of what is possible.As we enter a new phase of growth, we’re excited to welcome a driven Assembly and Testing Intern to learn, grow, and go on this journey with us!<img style="width:260px;" src="https://lh7-qw.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXeYHqOoIykzr6sV9rPHH45ukzLgBwhhpT3QlnCZO-xVTu2Acn5adsSp9WsexyyVFQkANxh0L8poMxUk9WK6vL1rwBkx-huTcOLrrc5yx2IE5H5PliAWzM6f47P6XXX3preSYDQkjQ?key=hw6zXglgsZutd4zqhvUk8Q">The projectSkytree builds modular and scalable technology for Direct Air Capture (DAC) of CO2 to combat climate change. As part of that technology, we design, develop, and build filters for CO2 capture using a sorbent material. Depending on the conditions of incoming air, the conformation of the filter, and the operating time, the DAC performance may decrease over time. However, our machines need to operate for extensive periods of time in the field without our filter material losing its performance. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate the influence of different factors (temperature, pressure, etc.) on the sorbent lifetime. To do so, we have built a custom setup for accelerated lifetime testing, as well as a setup for performance testing of our DAC sorbents. Based on use of these setups, we have identified areas for improvement in performance, accuracy, and user-friendliness of these systems. We have designed the next generation of the set-up for lifetime analysis.
