Kawasaki Heavy Industries (Kawasaki) and Low Emission Technology Australia (LETA) have formalized their shared commitment to reducing emissions from heavy industry with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).The MOU was signed at Kawasaki’s Head office in Tokyo by LETA Chief Executive Mark McCallum and Kawasaki’s Senior Manager Katsuki YASUHARA of Carbon Neutral Business Strategy Office.The MOU signals the organizations' intent to cooperate in the development and deployment of Post Combustion Capture (PCC) technology. PCC technology reduces emissions from heavy industry by capturing CO2 at the emissions source and preventing them from entering the atmosphere.Kawasaki is a leading innovator endeavoring to reduce CO2 globally through its technologies such as Kawasaki CO2 Capture (KCC)1 to contribute to future net-zero carbon emissions. LETA has taken a leadership role in developing decarbonizing technologies in Australia and with trading partners across the world.Katsuki YASUHARA, Senior Manager, Carbon Neutral Business Strategy Office of Kawasaki said “It is our honor to have this opportunity to work with LETA for the development and deployment of technology for PCC together. We believe the collaboration of Kawasaki’s carbon capture technology and LETA will accelerate decarbonization across the globe starting from Australia and Japan.”Mark McCallum, Chief Executive of LETA, said the MOU is just the beginning and that the two organizations are already exploring further opportunities to collaborate.“We are proud to have formalized our working relationship with Kawasaki. Kawasaki is a leading innovator in low emission technology and we share a commitment to a net zero future for heavy industry.“We are looking forward to working with Kawasaki to further develop PCC technology and explore its potential to decarbonize industry in both Japan and Australia.”1 Kawasaki CO2 Capture (KCC): Using a solid absorbent possible to use low-temperature steam (60°C) for CO2 capture realizes more energy-efficient CO2 separation and capture operations.
