The utility company Kredsløb has selected international technology group ANDRITZ as the supplier for a large carbon capture plant planned to be built in the Danish city of Aarhus.
The project aims to capture approximately 435,000 tons of CO2 annually from the flue gases of a district heating facility, significantly contributing to Aarhus’ goal of becoming CO2 neutral and Denmark’s broader climate targets.
Commenting on the development, Bjarne Munk Jensen, CEO, Kredsløb, said, “This initiative holds immense potential for Aarhus and Denmark. With ANDRITZ’s extensive experience in plant engineering and the use of proven carbon capture technology, we are confident that we will successfully implement this milestone project and achieve our CO2 reduction targets. By capturing CO2 originating from the combustion of sustainable biomass, Kredsløb will generate permanent carbon removals, which can be used by companies to compensate for hard-to-abate emissions.”
Adding to that, Harald Reissner, Senior Vice President, ANDRITZ Clean Air Technologies division, said, “ANDRITZ is committed to providing innovative, economically viable carbon capture solutions – in this project using the licensed OASE blue technology from BASF – that support our customers in their green transition, we look forward to collaborating with Kredsløb and contributing to a cleaner future.”
