UK-based carbon dioxide (CO2) removal company C-Capture has announced the start of Europe’s first carbon capture trial on a mainstream flat glass manufacturing plant in St. Helens, UK.

XLR8 CCS will showcase the ability of C-Capture’s carbon capture technology to remove CO2 from the flue gas emissions of three carbon-intensive industries.
In addition to decarbonising flat glass manufacturing at project partner’s Pilkington UK’s site, carbon capture trials are set to follow in the cement and energy from waste industries.
