Emissions Reduction
From Complexity to Clarity: Tailored Paths to Lower Emissions
Simplify your path to lower emissions with strategies tailored to your plant's unique needs. You can leverage our expertise and proven solutions to navigate the complexities of emissions reduction and achieve your sustainability goals.
Annual carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions from industry are approaching the 10-gigaton mark. Stricter regulations and ambitious sustainability goals challenge plant operators to find the best ways to shrink their carbon footprint. However, highly customized builds present multiple possible action paths and navigating this choice can be difficult. We have completed hundreds of projects aimed at improving efficiency and reducing the environmental impact of our clients' assets. With this experience and a vast toolbox of improvement options at hand, we can develop a roadmap tailored to your goals and the specifics of your plant to help you reduce your carbon footprint.
Looking to cut more than just greenhouse gas emissions? Watch our expert talk on sustainability and connect with our nitrogen oxide (NOx), water efficiency and waste experts to learn about cost-effective strategies for reducing your wider environmental impact.
Tackling Emissions at the Source: Avoid Them in the First Place!
Innovative solutions for tackling CO2 and NOx emissions at the source - extending from advanced combustion controls to sustainable fuel options.
Most emissions in process plants are released by combustion furnaces. So it makes sense to minimize these emissions at the source. Our expert team focuses specifically on combustion-related CO2 and NOx emissions.
Spanning the full range of improvement paths, we implement cutting-edge solutions to lower greenhouse gas emissions. These include advanced process controls, hydrogen and electric heating, optimized heat recovery, as well as recycled and bio-based fuels.
Looking beyond CO2, many customers are also keen to lower NOx emissions. With proven and scalable adjustments to the combustion process like the use of oxyfuel, steam injection or flue gas recirculation, our experts can help you effectively reduce the formation of these emissions - regardless of whether you operate a smaller unit or a world-scale plant.
Beyond Avoidance: Smart Removal for Real-world Operations
Advanced solutions to enhance sustainability and circularity by capturing CO2, reusing waste streams and reducing NOx emissions.
We acknowledge that not all emissions can be avoided economically. That's why we have developed and patented solutions to capture the remaining CO2 and process it so it can be used by an extensive range of applications.
But our technologies don't stop there. For all common liquid and solid waste streams, we have solutions enabling you to reuse the streams in your process so you can increase circularity and reduce emissions at the same time. In many cases, zero or near-zero liquid discharge can be achieved and water reused - with the additional upside of giving you greater independence from fresh water supplies during drought periods.
Circling back to the topic of NOx emissions, we leverage advanced selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and our proprietary LOTOX® technologies to achieve superior NOx reduction. With our solutions, you can look forward to flexible, low-temperature emission control over a wide range of industrial applications.
