Our Innovation team continues to develop and collaborate on novel technologies to find innovative solutions, develop sustainability initiatives and help manage and reduce GHG emissions across our company.
“This technology has potential for commercial application and we’re currently working with Svante on several feasibility studies to incorporate their technology into our existing facilities, which could help us further reduce GHG emissions.” “In its concentrated state, the captured CO 2 can be used in various forms while reducing the negative impact on climate,” says Karo Afiegbe, CO 2 Capture Development Engineer at Cenovus. Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is the most scalable negative emissions technology available today to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. Specially engineered filters grab onto the CO 2, isolating it from other gases so it can be safely produced in a concentrated form for controlled use. Svante’s technology takes flue gas from boiler exhaust stacks and exports it to a carbon capture system. Our collaboration has resulted in the construction of a successful demonstration unit that could possibly play a big role in our future emissions reductions.” “When we first partnered with Svante, they had a small model the size of a five-gallon pail. The Sk圜ycle technology is suitable for capturing megatons of carbon from large power generators and stationary emitters. “It has been such a journey,” says Curtis Cymbaluk, Manager of Cenovus’s Surface & GHG Reduction Technology team. The amount of CO 2 the system captures in a year is equivalent to the emissions from about 2,000 passenger vehicles. The Climeworks AG facility near Zurich becomes the first ever to capture CO2 at industrial scale from air and sell it directly to a buyer. At Carbon Engineering, our contribution to this future is a Direct Air Capture technology more than 12 years in the making that captures carbon dioxide. The bench-scale trial was successful, demonstrating the technology could work in field conditions, and in 2019 a 10,000 tonne per year system was commissioned as the second phase of the project. Many companies’ plans to reduce their greenhouse-gas emissions to net zero rely heavily on technologies to capture carbon.Some are more speculative than others. In 2015, we partnered with Svante, a Vancouver-based clean-tech startup company, to test its CO 2 capture technology. August 2021 – We’re capturing upwards of 10,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO 2) per year at our Pikes Peak South thermal project near Lloydminster, SK to help reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. datawrapper-chart-bxUey This is a game changer for CCS, said Brent Lewis, CEO of Carbon America, a Colorado-based carbon capture company that is developing systems for two ethanol plants.
