Herein, a novel OAE strategy on the basis of coupled electrochemical alkalinization and CaCO<sub>3</sub> dissolution is developed for the removal of influent CO<sub>2</sub> in ambient conditions. The laboratory strategy also considers the additional benefit of converting dissolved nitrite, which can be toxic at high concentrations in seawater. The protons produced in the anodic sector are neutralized by timely dissolution of CaCO<sub>3</sub> powders, which converts an equivalent mole of dissolved inorganic carbon. The alkalinity generated in the cathodic sector reacts with influent CO<sub>2</sub> to form bicarbonate anions in seawater. As a result, the integrated OAE design produces increased total alkalinity and dissolved inorganic carbon in seawater with a relatively moderate energy consumption of 104.5 kJ/mol of CO<sub>2</sub> and high electron efficiency. In addition, the anodic reaction converts nitrite to nitrate. The proof-of-concept module thus provides an eco-beneficial pathway for mCDR.
