SLB Capturi Completes Construction of the World’s First Industrial-Scale Carbon Capture Plant at a Cement Facility

Facility will reduce emissions by up to 400,000 metric tons of CO₂ annually for Heidelberg Materials ― one of the world’s largest building materials companies

OSLO, Norway--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SLB Capturi has reached a significant milestone of mechanical completion of the carbon capture plant at Heidelberg Materials’ cement facility in Brevik, Norway.

With the full-scale carbon capture plant now complete, including the carbon capture system, compression system, heat integration system, intermediate storage, and loadout facilities, the plant is now ready for testing and commissioning. When operational, this world-first commercial-scale carbon capture plant is now ready for testing and commissioning. When operational, this world-first commercial-scale carbon capture plant at a cement facility will enable production of net zero cement, without compromising on the product strength or quality.
