BioInc@NYMC Welcomes Dair Capture
Newest Client is Committed to Reducing Carbon Footprint
Dair Capture has joined BioInc@NYMC as its newest client. The company focuses on on-site CO₂ and water generation for applications ranging from CO₂ incubators and lasers to broader climate tech. Founded by Harshul Thakkar, Ph.D., the company’s roots trace back to 2016 during Dr. Thakkar’s studies at the Missouri University of Science and Technology, where he focused on capturing CO₂ aboard the International Space Station and was funded by NASA. “That experience opened my eyes to the critical role greenhouse gases play in our environment. I went on to work at Los Alamos National Laboratory for nearly four years in climate and clean tech. I’ve since transitioned to entrepreneurship, driven by the belief that science must lead to real-world impact,” he said.
