Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) has been awarded a contract to supply Nippon Ekitan Corporation, a group company of Taiyo Nippon Sanso Corporation (TNSC), with a carbon dioxide (CO2) capture unit for its liquid CO2 production facility.

The new unit will recover approximately 283 metric tonnes per day (mtpd), with installation expected to fully complete in October, 2017.
MHI’s capture technology, called the KM CDR ProcessTM, uses the KS-1TM adsorption solvent to achieve significant energy reductions compared with other methods.
