Preparing a cement plant for carbon capture
While a range of post-combustion carbon capture technologies are now receiving interest from the ...
UK-based startup Seabound recently caught the eye with the news that its ship carbon capture technology has been installed onboard the cement carrier UBC Cork. The patented system traps the ship's exhaust emissions and funnels them into a high-pressure chamber filled with calcium hydroxide pebbles, absorbing the CO2 to create calcium carbonate which, under an agreement with Heidelberg Materials, is eventually discharged at the newly-opened Brevik facility for conversion into green cement.
