Trellison Institute is building a reference implementation of per-tonne evidentiary disclosure for engineered carbon removal — CCS, DAC, BECCS. The implementation is called a proof pack.
Engineered CDR has an advantage on the evidentiary axis: chain-of-custody is easier to audit than nature-based alternatives. The proof-pack schema for engineered pathways formalises the advantage: sorbent-level provenance, energy source + carbon intensity, injection-site monitoring, storage-site attestation.
We propose: 1. Joint CCS / DAC proof-pack schema paper, rooted in IPCC SR CCS (Herzog) prescriptions and DOE FECM Carbon Negative Shot criteria (Wilcox). 2. Field deployment on an existing pilot — Mechanical Trees (Lackner), Georgia Tech sorbent research (Jones), MITEI consortium testbeds (Herzog). 3. Carbon Direct / Trellison interoperability specification (Friedmann) that shows how commercial CDR audit outputs format as proof packs. 4. DOE FECM procurement pilot that requires proof-pack-equivalent disclosure from Carbon Negative Shot awardees.
