UAE: Holcim and 44.01 have launched a pilot project in Fujairah to mineralise CO₂ captured from cement production, which they say marks the first global initiative to combine carbon capture from a cement plant with in-situ mineralisation. The project aims to directly capture and permanently store 5t/day of CO₂ underground. The pilot is supported by the Fujairah Natural Resources Corporation (FNRC) and delivered in collaboration with NT Energies, deploying Shell CANSOLV™ carbon capture technology through the alliance between Shell Catalysts & Technologies and Technip Energies.
44.01 CEO Talal Hasan said “Working with Holcim, FNRC and NT Energies, we are demonstrating a practical and scalable path to decarbonisation that can be replicated worldwide.”Top of Form
