Europe: Capsol Technologies has signed a contract to deliver a feasibility study evaluating the use of its CapsolEoP® (End-of-Pipe) carbon capture technology at a European lime plant, with the potential to capture several hundred thousand tonnes of CO₂ annually. This marks Capsol’s first project in the lime sector.
Chief business development officer Johan Jungholm said “This is an important milestone in our mission to decarbonise hard-to-abate sectors like lime production and represents our first project within this industry. Initial assessments indicate that CapsolEoP® would be particularly suited for carbon capture in lime production due to the energy-efficient design of the technology – featuring low energy consumption and operating without the need for external steam.”
The European Lime Association targets carbon capture from 5–10% of kiln-related emissions by 2030, with full capture by 2050.
