Toward 2030: New pathways to CO2 capture

01 Feb 2022

 

The European Union has created an ambitious objective to be climate-neutral by 2050, that is, to be an economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. The European Green Deal codifies this objective, and all economic sectors are participating in its realisation. In April 2021, the EU set a target of cutting carbon emissions by 55% by 2030.

CARMOF, MEMBER and MOF4AIR are three European-funded projects geared to demonstrate innovative CO2 capture technologies in real industrial conditions. Promising new material solutions are under development for the next generation of CCUS technologies that are expected to reach the markets in the next few years.

This webinar highlights the following:

  • Insight into innovative capture processes (membranes, adsorption & hybrid) and their possible impact.
  • Upscalability of the processes from grams-to tons-scale.
  • Policy recommendations.

Participants will learn about how the project group members are collaborating to address the common goals toward reducing CO2 emissions in energy-intensive companies.
