Honeywell's UOP technology has been selected to capture and store up to 1.65 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) annually and produce clean hydrogen energy from a re-used gasification plant in West Terre Haute, Indiana.
Wabash Valley Resources selected the technology for the project, and it is expected that the technology will become one of the largest carbon storage programs in the United States to date.
According to the contract, UOP will provide technical licensing, basic engineering and professional equipment, including modular MOLSIV™ molecular sieve dehydration unit, modular Ortloff CO2 fractionation unit and Polybed™ pressure swing adsorption (PSA) unit for the secondary gasification unit.
Ortloff CO2 fractionation technology will produce a high-purity liquid CO2 stream while separating the hydrogen-rich stream purified by the PSA unit. The carbon dioxide stream will be sent to permanent geological storage, while the hydrogen stream can provide fuel for hydrogen turbines to generate electricity. The hydrogen stream can also be used for chemical synthesis or sold as a clean transportation fuel.
Dan Williams, Managing Director of Wabash Valley Resources, said: "By implementing Honeywell UOP's mature carbon dioxide capture and hydrogen purification technologies, we will significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions."
"The project will allow market access for clean hydrogen and support the growth of the domestic hydrogen economy."
Laura Leonard, vice president and general manager of UOP Process Technologies, said: "For many companies that want to make significant progress on the sustainability goals, adding carbon capture and storage to hydrogen production is an economical solution."
"Hydrogen is a multifunctional energy carrier that can provide low-carbon solutions for almost all industries-petrochemical and refining, construction, commerce, transportation and power generation. Customers such as Wabash trust Honeywell UOP to provide optimized technical solutions to Meet project requirements."
Honeywell and Trane Technology have joined forces to accelerate the transition to the next generation of environmentally friendly refrigerants.
Today, the BEIS Industrial Energy Transformation Fund (IETF) Phase One: the first batch of winners of the 2020 Summer Competition was announced.
Honeywell UOP's 200 million cubic feet per day cryogenic gas processing plant will extract natural gas liquids from natural gas produced in many countries in the Permian Basin in the United States.
