Massive amounts of air... Like outside?

Ideally yes!

You need massive amounts of air moving through the solution to the CO2 problem and that is the issue.

Same thing with all these "water from air" things that pop up time and time again. Sure air contains both water and CO2, but the concentration at any give point is minimal so you need massive amounts of air moving through the system at all time for there to be any CO2 to scrub from the air which is the problem.
