SLB Capturi powers up its first modular carbon capture plant
SLB Capturi has completed commissioning and is handing over its modular carbon capture plant at Twence’s waste-to-energy facility in Hengelo, Netherlands. SLB Capturi is the joint venture between SLB and Aker Carbon Capture, dedicated to carbon removal and reduction solutions.
The new plant has the capacity to capture up to 100,000 metric tons of CO2 per year, which will be used in applications for the horticulture and food and beverage sectors.
The carbon capture plant is based on SLB Capturi’s standard, modular Just Catch™ design, which reduces onsite installation and outfitting work — providing a more cost-efficient and easier-to-deploy option compared with other market alternatives.
“We are extremely proud of our collaboration with Twence to bring online the first modular carbon capture plant at a waste-to-energy facility,” said Egil Fagerland, chief executive officer, SLB Capturi. “As pressure mounts for industrials to reduce emissions and meet net-zero targets, access to affordable, effective carbon capture technologies is more important than ever. We look forward to continuing our mission to enable access to the capture technologies needed to achieve CO2 emissions reduction impact at scale."
"We are excited to see the successful completion of our new carbon capture plant," said Marc Kapteijn, chief executive officer, Twence. "This highly innovative and sustainable project was safely realized by a motivated and committed team and through intensive collaboration with SLB Capturi. In the spring, we will supply the first CO2 to the greenhouse horticulture sector. We are convinced that this technology plays a crucial role in our ongoing efforts to reduce carbon emissions and realize our sustainability ambitions.”
