Klaus Baernthaler, ANDRITZ, outlines the development of the European cement industry’s first pilot CCUS plant.

The capacity of the plant is 5000 tpd and the storage facility has a diameter of 80 m.

The goal is to significantly reduce CO2 emissions from existing cement plants and at the same time prospectively utilise the captured CO2 for other applications.

Italian Magaldi Power supplied a feeder-extractor for the Italcementi cement plant in Samatzai, Sardinia, Italy.
