2. Further Information
| Field | Information |
|---|---|
| Project Description | Feasibility study for full-scale application of Svante's technology at LafargeHolcim's cement plant at Portland, Colorado. Assumed to be focusing on Svante's rotating adsorption machines (RAMs), although not explicitly stated. Scale would be up to 725,000 t/yr CO2 capture, this quantity would require two of Svante's lasrgest proposed RAMs with 1,000 t/da capacity each. CO2 would be used by Occidental for EOR. The site is faily close to the Sheep Mountain CO2 pipeline running south to Texas, although no mention yet made - news limited so far. (Added 13/01/20) |
