UK: Hanson plans to install a C-Capture solvent-based carbon capture system at its Ketton cement plant in Rutland. The producer says that the technology reduces energy requirements per tonne of CO2 by 40% compared to other capture systems.
Chief executive officer Simon Wills said “Carbon capture is a critical part of our strategy to decarbonise cement production, and essential if we are to reach net zero carbon by 2050. If successful, the C-Capture process has the potential to be rolled-out across other sites across the HeidelbergCement Group.”
