Scaling up carbon capture technology is huge challenge

There’s been a stampede of investment into direct air capture, but some advocates worry the carbon capture process may not be scaled up fast enough to make an impact. Direct air capture is a new technology that vacuums carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. The CO2 is trapped by a special filter inside a giant

ABS, Daewoo, and GasLog to collaborate in developing carbon capture onboard technology

ABS, Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering (DSME) and GasLog are joining forces to lead the development of carbon neutral shipping. The three companies have committed to work together to develop an onboard CO2 capture and storage system (OCCS) by signing a joint development project (JDP) at the Posidonia International Shipping Exhibition. This emissions reduction technology

Scorpio Tankers signs an MoU with Carbon Ridge on development of onboard carbon capture

Scorpio Tankers Inc. announces that the Company has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Carbon Ridge LLC to collaborate on the development of onboard carbon capture for maritime vessels. Carbon Ridge is a US-based startup working to commercialize existing gas separation technology without the need for large structural modifications. The Agreement addresses the collaboration

Scrubber carbon capture conversion tests show signs of success

Scrubber manufacturer Langh Tech, which doubles up as a shipowner via sister firm Langh Ship, has started researching the possibility of carbon capture onboard vessels. The first tests have been successfully performed onboard one of Langh Ship’s fleet, utilising the existing Langh Tech hybrid scrubber installed onboard. Langh Tech has conducted several preliminary tests of

How industry is depending on carbon capture technology for climate goals

Industries from cement to mining are creating plans to cap and cut their planet-warming emissions, and many depend on a technology still in development: carbon capture. There are two main types of carbon capture and storage: Point-source carbon capture and storage (CCS) sequesters CO2 produced at the source, like a smokestack, while direct air capture
