埃克森美孚與Nucor簽署碳捕集與封存協(xié)議

據(jù)管道新聞網(wǎng)6月5日消息稱，Nucor公司與埃克森美孚簽署了一項(xiàng)協(xié)議，從該公司位于路易斯安那州Convent的直接還原鐵(DRI)工廠捕獲、運(yùn)輸和儲存碳。埃克森美孚每年將從DRI工廠捕獲80萬噸二氧化碳，并將其儲存在埃克森美孚在路易斯安那州的一家工廠中。

 

Nucor公司董事長、總裁兼首席執(zhí)行官Leon Topalian表示：“?？松梨诤献鞯倪@個變革性CCS項(xiàng)目是我們脫碳戰(zhàn)略的關(guān)鍵組成部分，將成為北美地區(qū)碳含量最低的國家之一。我們正在采取多方面的方法來實(shí)現(xiàn)脫碳，這種伙伴關(guān)系建立在我們之前在無碳鐵初創(chuàng)企業(yè)、可再生能源發(fā)電和小型模塊化核反應(yīng)堆技術(shù)開發(fā)方面的投資基礎(chǔ)上。”

 

該項(xiàng)目預(yù)計將于2026年啟動，并支持路易斯安那州到2050年實(shí)現(xiàn)二氧化碳凈零排放的目標(biāo)。

 

?？松梨诘吞紭I(yè)務(wù)總裁Dan Ammann表示：“與Nucor公司的合作是我們履行使命的最新例證，我們正在幫助加速世界實(shí)現(xiàn)凈零排放的道路。我們期待著應(yīng)用我們的技術(shù)和專業(yè)知識來減少Nucor的排放。”

 

憑借其基于回收的生產(chǎn)方法，Nucor已經(jīng)是世界上最清潔的鋼鐵制造商之一。

 

與埃克森美孚達(dá)成的碳捕獲和儲存協(xié)議進(jìn)一步鞏固了Nucor作為可持續(xù)發(fā)展領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者的地位，并建立公司能夠生產(chǎn)低碳鋼鐵和鋼鐵產(chǎn)品的創(chuàng)新基礎(chǔ)。

Exxon Mobil Signs Carbon Capture and Storage Deal with Nucor

 

Nucor Corp. has signed an agreement with Exxon Mobil to capture, transport, and store carbon from the company's direct reduced iron (DRI) plant in Convent, Louisiana. Exxon Mobil will capture up to 800,000 metric tons per year of CO2 from the DRI plant and store the CO2 at an Exxon Mobil-owned facility in Louisiana.

 

"This transformative CCS project with Exxon Mobil is a key part of our decarbonization strategy and will result in some of the lowest embodied carbon DRI or HBI in North America," Leon Topalian, chair, president and CEO of Nucor Corp., said. "We are taking a multi-faceted approach to decarbonization, and this partnership builds on previous investments we have made in a carbon-free iron start-up, renewable energy generation, and the development of small modular nuclear reactor technology."

 

The project is expected to start-up in 2026 and supports Louisiana's objective of reaching net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050.

 

"This collaboration with Nucor is the latest example of how we're delivering on our mission to help accelerate the world's path to net zero," Dan Ammann, president of Exxon Mobil Low Carbon, said. "We look forward to applying our technology and expertise to reducing emissions for Nucor."

 

With its recycling-based production method, Nucor is already one of the cleanest steelmakers in the world.

 

This carbon capture and storage agreement with Exxon Mobil furthers Nucor's status as a sustainability leader and builds on the innovation that has enabled the company to produce steel and steel products with low embodied carbon.
