CF Industries Holdings, Inc. announced the start-up of the carbon dioxide (CO2) dehydration and compression facility at its Donaldsonville Complex in Louisiana. The facility will enable the transportation and permanent geological sequestration of up to 2 million metric tons of CO2 annually that would otherwise have been emitted into the atmosphere.
Seabound, a UK-based leader in marine carbon capture, has launched a first-of-its-kind onboard carbon capture project in partnership with Hartmann Group ("Hartmann"), InterMaritime Group ("InterMaritime"), and Heidelberg Materials Northern Europe. The captured carbon, bound in limestone and safely stored onboard, will be offloaded at the Port of Brevik, Norway, for use at Heidelberg Materials’ Brevik cement plant.
NEXTCHEM has been awarded about €210 million basic engineering and critical proprietary equipment supply contract for the Pacifico Mexinol project. This ultra-low carbon methanol production facility will be located in Sinaloa, Mexico, and will have a capacity of 2.1 million tons per year. Once operational in 2029, it is poised to be the largest single ultra-low carbon methanol facility in the world – producing approximately 350 thousand metric tons.
Ground-breaking technology developed at Trinity, which captures carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, is being put through its paces at Dublin Airport – with the team behind its creation hoping to demonstrate its wider potential for capturing carbon in the aviation and e-fuel industries. This deployment marked the first industrial-scale field test of the technology.
Hafslund Celsio announces the sale of 1.1 million tonnes of permanent carbon removals to Microsoft over a 10-year period. The agreement is a significant contribution to the commercial success of Hafslund Celsio’s full-scale CCS project in Oslo and is a recognition of the waste-to-energy sector as a credible provider of permanent carbon removals.
