Svante to develop carbon capture project at Arkansas pulp mill with DOE backing

0

Canada’s Svante has unveiled plans to develop a carbon capture and storage facility at the Arkansas-based Ashdown pulp and paper mill to support the removal of 1.5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2).

Believed to be a first of its kind, the project is being boosted by funding from the US Department of Energy (DOE). This will support a pre-FEED study to evaluate post-combustion carbon capture from the recovery boilers’ flue gas.

Specifically, the site will capture biogenic CO2. This is because Svante hopes to capture CO2 originating in the atmosphere via sustainable biomass, rather than anthropogenic or man-made CO2.

To achieve this, Svante will utilise its solid sorbent carbon capture technology if the project is given the green light. Solid sorbents, particularly metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), are a step change for the carbon capture industry.
