Canada: Heidelberg Materials North America has announced a new front end engineering design (FEED) contract for its Edmonton carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) project. This involves MHI Low Carbon Solutions Canada (MHI-LCSC) and Kiewit Energy Group who will collaborate on the carbon capture technology at the plant. The FEED study will leverage MHI's Advanced KM CDR Process, which uses the KS-21 solvent. The Edmonton plant aims to capture 1Mt/yr of CO₂.
Vice President at Kiewit, Rob Medley, said "Heidelberg Materials is taking a major step towards decarbonising hard to abate industries by deploying innovative and effective carbon capture technology."
