Technology and measures

  • Post-combustion carbon captureearly-commercialCO2 is separated from the kiln's flue gas after combustion, using an amine or solvent process bolted onto an existing plant, which is what makes it the retrofit route for kilns that are not being rebuilt.
  • CO2 transport and storageearly-commercialThe pipelines, ships, terminals and permitted geological stores that a captured tonne has to reach before it counts as abated, and which no single cement plant can build for itself.

Funding

No public capital recorded for this project.
