COMBINED CO2-CAPTURE & GREEN HYDROGEN PRODUCTION
by PureteQ
ESTECH’s CAPPOW technology is unique as it enables carbon capture and production of green hydrogen in one and the same process, which reduces the energy consumption considerably as compared to two separate processes
The commercial focus for the ESTECH CAPPOW plant is, among others, small and medium-sized companies that have access to clean electricity but unable to electrify their production.

CAPPOW can be applied to combined heat and power plants, as well as waterworks, and any industrial production that emits CO2. The potential users include most companies within industries such as utility companies, privately owned companies, as well as the public sector e.g., hospitals.
In principle the plant will enable anyone with a gas boiler of a certain size to optimize the use of traditional energy sources with exhaust gas cleaning and carbon capture combined with hydrogen production.
Today these segments are not offered similar cost-effective solutions, and individually their emissions are minor but combined they are emitting a large part of the total CO2 emissions.

CARBON CAPTURE & POWER GENERATION

Details Of The Cappow Technology
• First step is to remove CO2 from the exhaust gas in an absorber
• The absorbed CO2 is then placed in a fluid, and an electrolyzer splits the elements into hydrogen, oxygen and CO2
• All electricity is derived from green sources and is stored in the generation of hydrogen
• The hydrogen is industrial grade, and can be utilized to produce fuels and for other industrial purposes
• Most of the green energy used for carbon capture is stored in hydrogen
PureteQ invests in research and development of new technologies within the fields of CO2 capture and Power-to-X including Onboard Carbon Capture Ready Scrubber Systems
