Air Liquide to supply liquid carbon dioxide tech to Stockholm BECCS
Stockholm Exergi agrees to one of world’s largest deployments of CO₂ liquefication technology to enable transport of emissions captured from biomass power plant
French industrial gases company Air Liquide has agreed to supply one of the world’s largest CO₂ liquefaction plants to a BECCS project under development in Sweden. Under a framework agreement, Stockholm Exergi will deploy Air Liquide’s Cryocap technology at its biomass-fired combined heat and power plant in the Vartan district of Stockholm. Deployment of a liquefication plant, with a capacity of 3,500t/d, would enable transport of CO₂ captured at the power plant to permanent storage. The Stockholm BECCS facility is designed to liquefy and store around 8mt of biogenic CO₂ over the first ten years of operation. Air Liquide’s technology is based on a chemical free, non-flammable process. It w
