Carbon Clean signs MOU with AGRA Industries to provide semi-modular CCS

In the UK, Carbon Clean has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with AGRA Industries. Under the strategic partnership, AGRA Industries and Carbon Clean will collaborate to provide Carbon Clean’s semi-modular CaptureX technology to companies in agriculture-related sectors, including the production of biofuel ethanol and sustainable aviation fuels.

Carbon Clean’s CaptureX technology is proven across 49 sites globally and prefabricated, with 80% of the solution modularized and containerized. This substantially reduces on-site activity and installation time compared to open-plant construction. AGRA Industries provides a single source solution for engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects in multiple markets, including corn and soybean seed, animal feed, biomass pellet, and bio-based fuels.

The collaboration will enable customers to capture CO2 released during the biofuel fermentation stage, enabling the production of fuels with a lower carbon intensity (CI) rating. This will enhance biofuel producers’ ability to claim Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) credits such as the 45Z clean fuel production and 45Q tax credits.
