FLSmidth and Carbon8 Systems sign technology partnership to accelerate carbon capture in the global cement industry
FLSmidth has signed a global commercial partnership with UK-based Carbon8 Systems (C8S) to accelerate the cement industry’s Net Zero ambitions.
Carbon capture is essential to achieve a sustainable global cement industry – which currently accounts for 7-8% of global carbon emissions – and deliver on FLSmidth’s MissionZero pledge to enable zero emission production by 2030.
Working with the UK’s C8S, FLSmidth will use its global network to extend the reach of C8S’ carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) solution. C8S’ technology, already deployed at a Vicat cement plant in France, takes CO2 directly from process gasses and combine it with bypass dust from the production to manufacture a lightweight aggregate which can be used in construction.
