"The best conference I participated in during almost 20 years of professional life"

The 2nd Global CemCCUS Conference and Exhibition will cover developments and the state-of-the-art in carbon capture, utilisation and sequestration for the cement and lime industries. The conference is open to all companies and individuals who wish to attend!

Carbon capture from cement and lime production and its subsequent use or sequestration will be unavoidable in a world which requires net-zero-carbon emissions by 2050. Once cement and lime producers have done everything else that they can to reduce their CO₂ emissions - measures that are covered in the sister-conferences Global CemFuels, Global Slag and Global FutureCem - then they will be obliged to capture the rest, and either repurpose it, or sequester it.

Global CemCCUS will specifically address the following themes:

• Legislative and regulatory trends;
• Legal and finance;
• Global CCUS advances;
• Gas conditioning;
• Dust filtration options;
• Sensor & analysis;
• Process control;
• Carbon capture technologies;
• Compression and cryogenics;
• Storage options;
• Pipeline practicalities;
• Logistic and transportation options;
• Sequestration possibilities;
• Repurposing and upcycling CO₂;
• Project management & finance

Delegates are expected to attend from more than 40 countries, to learn about the state-of-the-art in carbon capture, use and sequestion. If your business emits CO₂ from cement and lime production, then you must attend!
