Technip Energies, through its Norwegian entity KANFA, a leading provider of process solutions and carbon capture solutions, together with Shell Catalysts & Technologies, has been awarded the EPF (Engineering, Procurement, and Fabrication) contract by Carbon Centric for a carbon capture unit project in Rakkestad, Norway.
The project will be designed to capture ten thousand tons per annum of CO2, which represents >90% of CO2 emissions from the Rakkestad waste incineration plant run by Østfold Energi. The CO2 will be purified and liquified, prepared for loading to truck transport. The delivery also contains heat integration and energy optimization, ensuring the delivery of energy from the plant is maintained with minimum impact. The Carbon Capture plant will be owned and operated by Carbon Centric.
The Carbon Centric Rakkestad project is going to utilize the Canopy C10, a solution of Technip Energies Carbon Capture range of solutions Canopy by T.ENTM powered by Shell CANSOLV®. Previously KANFA has delivered several carbon capture pilots to various customers in the world. The C10 capture plant is modularised and takes advantage of KANFA’s decades of experience in the deliveries of modular process systems.
This project is also the first plant delivered under the collaboration between Carbon Centric and KANFA where capture-as-a-service offering is presented to small-scale emitters.
The Rakkestad project demonstrates that modular carbon capture enables cost-efficient carbon capture for even the smaller incinerators.
Christophe Malaurie, SVP of Decarbonization Solutions, Technip Energies, commented: “We are very proud to deploy through KANFA our Canopy by T.ENTM modular solution in Norway and support with Carbon Centric the decarbonization of small emitters with innovative fit-for-purpose solutions. As a leading net-zero enabler, we combine best-in-class technologies, proven project delivery track record, and innovative models to support our clients across sectors and geographies in their net zero journey. We are part of the solution and this award with Carbon Centric is an example of our commitment.”
Kenneth Juul, Chief Commercial Officer and co-founder, Carbon Centric, stated, “We are excited to jointly develop this project with Technip Energies. This is the first of many carbon capture plants Carbon Centric will build, own and operate. We currently have an additional three plants under development. Our model reduces the risk for emitters and even removes the financial burden. This is clearly interesting for many emitters. We welcome potential partners across Europe to visit this plant in Norway next year, to discuss possibilities for collaboration.”
Technip Energies and Shell Catalysts & Technologies have a strategic alliance to collaborate on the marketing, licensing, and execution of projects using Shell’s CANSOLV® * CO2 Capture System technology. This alliance, which began in 2012, allows them to better respond to the rapidly growing carbon capture and storage (CCS) market and the need for affordable and proven solutions.
