Description
Carbon Sink plans to deliver 100,000 tonnes/year of green methanol to A.P. Moller-Maersk from its debut plant, which will be co-located with the Red River Energy existing bioethanol plant in Rosholt, South Dakota.
Carbon Sink produces green methanol by combining green hydrogen from the electrolysis of water using additional renewable electricity and biogenic CO2. The CO2 for the first project will be waste CO2 captured from the Red River Energy bio-ethanol plant, recycling those emissions into green methanol.
