(MHIENG) and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Environmental &amp; Chemical Engineering Co., Ltd. (MHIEC) \u2013 two group companies of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI), both based in Yokohama \u2013 are poised to commence demonstration testing of equipment for separation, capture and effective utilization of CO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions from a local waste-to-energy (WtE) plant. The test program will be conducted together with the city of Yokohama and Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd. The four parties recently signed a memorandum of collaboration, their collective goal set on realizing a carbon neutral society.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The demonstration testing, a joint undertaking by the private and public sectors, will integrate MHIEC and Yokohama\u2019s knowhow in the operation of WtE plants, MHIENG\u2019s high-performance carbon capture technology, and Tokyo Gas\u2019s expertise in hydrogen and carbon usage. The aim is to separate, capture and effectively recycle the mainly biomass-derived CO<sub>2<\/sub> in the flue gas generated during the incineration of household waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under this project, MHI Group\u2019s carbon capture technology will be applied at Yokohama\u2019s Tsurumi Waste-to-Energy Plant, which was originally built by MHIEC. MHIENG will design and manufacture the compact CO<sub>2<\/sub> capture system based on its proprietary process technologies, and MHIEC will take charge of the equipment\u2019s installation. The high-purity CO<sub>2<\/sub> separated and captured from the flue gas will be transported to Tokyo Gas\u2019s Yokohama Techno Station, located in Tsurumi-ku, Yokohama, where it will be used for a demonstration test of methanation that synthesizes methane gas through chemical reaction with hydrogen, as well as for research on direct use to industrial gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project will be MHIENG\u2019s first application of its CO<sub>2<\/sub> capture technology in a WtE plant. The equipment to be designed and manufactured is a compact CO<sub>2<\/sub> capture system with a capture capacity of 0.3 tonnes per day (tpd), and it is applicable to various industrial facilities. It will further strengthen MHIENG\u2019s product lineup as the company pursues increased applications of its carbon capture technologies to diverse emission sources and scales. For MHI Group, the project is significant in terms of providing a carbon negative solution responding to Japan\u2019s decarbonization needs going forward: implementation of integrated carbon separation and capture from social infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MHI Group today is undertaking strategic strengthening of its energy transition business, and the development of a CO<sub>2<\/sub> ecosystem is central to those initiatives. Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) is garnering attention as an effective means for realizing a carbon neutral society. With the demonstration testing to be performed in Yokohama, MHIENG and MHIEC, key players in MHI\u2019s energy transition program, will contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions on a global scale, part of MHI\u2019s ongoing commitment to help protect the global environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2022\/03\/download.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-106609\" width=\"788\" height=\"444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2022\/03\/download.jpg 900w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2022\/03\/download-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2022\/03\/download-150x85.jpg 150w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2022\/03\/download-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2022\/03\/download-400x225.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 788px) 100vw, 788px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About MHIENG\u2019s CO2 Capture technologies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>MHIENG (originally MHI) has been developing the KM CDR Process\u2122 and the Advanced KM CDR Process\u2122 in collaboration with Kansai Electric Power since 1990.
