Overview
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) plays a pivotal role in the global efforts to decarbonize the energy sector and essential industrial processes. With the urgent need to remove 1.2 gigatonnes (Gt) of CO2 from the atmosphere by 2030 and over 6.2 Gt by 2050, the deployment of effective CCS technologies is crucial to achieving global climate reduction targets.
Our Contribution to CCS
Our cutting-edge flow control equipment is integral to both pre-combustion and post-combustion CCS systems. In these systems, carbon dioxide (CO2) is extracted from exhaust gases, and our specialized equipment ensures efficient and reliable processes.
Our Copes-Vulcan steam conditioning valves play a safety-critical role in generating the heat required to strip impurities from flue gas. These valves are specifically designed to enhance safety and reliability during boiler start-up.
We are actively involved in Direct Air Capture (DAC), an emerging CCS technique. DAC involves heating calcium carbonate to create CO2 and calcium oxide. Our proven Copes-Vulcan desuperheater, steam, water, and turbine bypass valves are essential for process control in DAC, improving safety and reliability during the crucial stages of the operation.
CO2 Compression and Transportation
Once CO2 is captured, the next step involves compressing it into its dense phase and transporting it to the storage point. This can be achieved through direct pipelines or dedicated CO2 carriers.
Pumps and Valves
Our pumps and valves are engineered to maintain consistent flow rates and pressures, enabling the reliable transportation of CO2 over extended distances. Designed for robust operation in remote locations with minimal intervention, they also contribute to reducing the likelihood of fugitive emissions.
Storage and Injection
Injection of captured CO2 deep underground is a key aspect of the storage process. This can occur in porous rock and sand layers or in depleted oil and gas fields for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) applications.
Efficiency and Optimization
Our commitment extends beyond the core components of CCS systems. We offer additional solutions to enhance efficiency and optimize uptime.
Remote Pig Launchers/Receivers
Our remote pig launchers/receivers facilitate efficient pipeline maintenance, improving overall operational efficiency.
Quick-Opening Bandlockâ˘2 Closures
Our Bandlockâ˘2 closures further contribute to optimizing uptime by streamlining processes related to CCS infrastructure.
Carbon Capture
In the pursuit of global climate reduction targets, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a vital solution. Our advanced flow control equipment, pumps, valves, and additional solutions are engineered to meet the challenges of CCS, ensuring the efficient, reliable, and environmentally responsible implementation of carbon capture technologies. Together, let us build a sustainable future by addressing the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
