Projectdetails

Introduction

The CalCC project will showcase a pathway for decarbonisation in the lime industry. The project is capturing and permanently storing CO2 emitted during lime production at Lhoist Group’s Réty site.

Project Overview

This innovative project will cover the full CO2 value chain:

  • Capture
  • Pipeline transport
  • Liquefaction
  • Shipping
  • Offshore geological storage

Carbon Capture Technology

For the carbon capture aspect of the project, Air Liquide will build the first Cryocap™ FG unit in a lime plant at industrial scale. The Cryocap™ technology uses cryogenic temperatures to separate gases and creates a 99.99% pure CO2 stream needed for CO2 transport and geological storage.

Environmental Impact

The project plans on achieving 87% relative greenhouse gas emission avoidance compared to the reference scenario.
