Webinar - Key Technologies for Enabling Carbon Capture from Cement Plants
As cement producers begin their carbon capture journey, selecting an appropriate technology that is optimised for clinker production is the first step. Technologies are ready today that can be deployed at scale – based any number of factors – carbon dioxide concentration levels, plot space constraints, available utilities, targeted capture rates, and flue gas contaminants. Join us to learn about different carbon capture technologies to help achieve your CO2 emission targets.
Decarbonising cement production is crucial to limiting global warming to 1.5°C, a target set by the United Nations. According to the GCCA’s 2050 Cement and Concrete Industry Roadmap, cement producers will have to fully decarbonise by 2050 to meet this goal. This decarbonisation will require major reductions in CO2, as cement currently accounts for nearly 7% of global emissions according to the UN.
While improved efficiency and savings in cement clinker production will also help reduce emissions, perhaps the most promising method of reducing carbon emissions from cement plants is carbon capture. By 2050, over 1 Gt/year of CO2 will need to be captured by cement producers, which is a more than 400% increase from the 2030 goal of 258 MT/year, according to the IEA. Honeywell UOP has a portfolio of carbon capture solutions that can help producers achieve these goals while also helping to minimise energy usage and cost of capture. These include solvent, adsorbent, and cryogenic CO2 capture solutions.
