LafargeHolcim in the U.S., Air Liquide and the University of Illinois' Prairie Research Institute are collaborating on a Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) study for a carbon capture retrofit that can separate up to 95% of CO 2 emissions at the Holcim Ste. Genevieve (Mo.) cement plant. "While we have partnered with energy-generation facilities on many of our carbon management projects, carbon from industrial sources is also a key piece of the puzzle," said Prairie Research Institute's Kevin OBrien, the project's principal investigator. "It's exciting to collaborate with LafargeHolcim in the U.S. to explore the application of this carbon capture technology at a commercial scale, in a way that has the potential for significant impact." The project will employ Air Liquide's Crycocap FG system at the Ste. Genevieve plant, which features the largest single kiln in the world.
