A hydrogen-fired blue methanol production facility on the lower Mississippi River, 25 miles south of New Orleans in Plaquemines Parish. The carbon dioxide produced from the plant will be removed and directed either to sequestration or for re-use by carbon tech companies located adjacent to the plant, including the plan to recycle the CO2 into… Continue reading IGP Methanol Mississippi River Blue Methanol Production Facility
In a 2022 report, Mitsui notes the manufacturing of bio-methanol through biogas at Fairway Methanol, a joint venture with Texas-based Celanese corporation. Fairway Methanol is manufacturing low-carbon methanol and constructing a CCU business. The project began running in January 2024. It is expected to capture 180,000 metric tons of CO2 industrial emissions and produce 130,000 metric… Continue reading Mitsui | Celanese | Fairway Methanol
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… Continue reading Carbon Sink Red River Energy plant
A potential CCUS system at PacifiCorp’s Jim Bridger Units 3 and 4, in Wyoming. In 2017, as part of the Integrated CCS Pre-Feasibility phase of the CarbonSAFE Initiative, the University of Wyoming, in partnership with DOE, will perform a phase I pre-feasibility assessment for secure, commercial-scale CO2 capture and storage at the Rock Springs Uplift,… Continue reading Jim Bridger CCUS Retrofit
A feasibility study was conducted by the Kansas Geological Survey and the University of Kansas for a commercial-scale CCS project in Kansas. This feasibility study examined three of Kansas’ largest CO2 point sources, nearby storage sites, and prospective CO2 transportation networks. Westar Energy’s Jeffrey Energy Center near St. Marys, Kansas served as the primary site… Continue reading ICKan
The Kemper County Energy Facility is a lignite-fueled integrated gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) facility. The plant design incorporates the air-blown TRIG™ technology jointly developed by Southern Company, KBR, and DOE. Mississippi Power Company, a Southern Company subsidiary, owns and operates the plant. The facility was supposed to employ emissions control equipment to produce marketable byproducts of… Continue reading Kemper County CCS
The hub study area comprises CO2 sources in Iowa, Kansas, and Nebraska and CO2 sinks in Kansas and Nebraska, representing the first potential large-scale project for the Midcontinent region. The stacked storage corridor is characterized by alternating sequences of deep saline formations, oil-bearing reservoirs, shale, and evaporite units that are conducive to vertically stacked CO2… Continue reading Integrated Midcontinent Stacked Storage Carbon Hub
An Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle power generating facility located on a 315-acre site in the oil-producing area of Elk Hills approximately 2 miles northwest of the unincorporated community of Tupman in western Kern County, California. The project would gasify petroleum coke to produce hydrogen to fuel a combustion turbine operating in combined cycle mode. The gasification… Continue reading Hydrogen Energy California
A large-scale commercial carbon capture with investments from Starwood Energy (Lotus Infrastructure), OGCI Climate Investments, and Elysian Ventures. Starwood and OGCI CI will co-invest in the initial development of the project, which will use commercially available CO2 capture technology and is expected to capture 90% of the CO2 emissions from an existing power facility. The… Continue reading Lotus OGCI Elysian Carbon Capture Project
A polygeneration facility in Belle Plaine, Saskatchewan, where large volumes of petcoke — a low-value product of heavy oil upgrading — would be gasified and used to produce a number of products, including hydrogen, steam, and sulphur, and to generate up to 500 MW in electricity to potentially displace aging coal-fired generation stations in Saskatchewan.… Continue reading Belle Plaine Integrated Polygeneration CCS Project
