(MHIENG), a part of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group, has launched full-scale operation, on schedule, of a compact CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;capture system ordered in November 2021 by Taihei Dengyo Kaisha, Ltd. It is the first system of its kind to go into commercial operation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The compact CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;capture system was installed at a 7-megawatt (MW) class biomass power plant operated by Taihei Dengyo in Seifu Shinto, a suburb of Hiroshima City. The system has the capacity to capture 0.3 metric tons per day (tpd) and is based on a highly versatile standardized design requiring an installation space of just five meters in length and two meters wide. Its modular configuration enabled rapid transportation to the site and easy installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;captured from the plant\u2019s flue gas will be used for growing vegetables in on-site greenhouses \u2013 an example of the circular economy. By fully consuming all captured CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;at its carbon-negative power plant, Taihei Dengyo looks to help prevent global warming and promote a decarbonized society. The biomass power plant where the system was installed was delivered by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Power IDS, Ltd. in October 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the next step, MHIENG will perform demonstration test of operational support services for the plant using a proprietary remote monitoring system with the customer. MHIENG ultimately aims to put in place a fully integrated customer support package, encompassing everything from system design and delivery to after-sale servicing, operation and maintenance. MHIENG also has plans to expand its lineup of compact CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;capture systems as well as to pursue reduced installation, operation and maintenance costs and faster deliveries. This will allow it to offer diverse solutions to the customer\u2019s needs especially of relatively small-scale industrial and other facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MHI Group is currently strengthening its position in the Energy Transition, and the development of a CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;solutions ecosystem is a core component of that initiative. Carbon dioxide capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) is garnering attention as an effective means for realizing a carbon neutral society.<br>MHIENG, as a leading company in decarbonization and key to the group\u2019s strategy regarding Energy Transition, will continue to help achieve wide-scale greenhouse gas emission reduction by introducing its high-performance CO<sub>2<\/sub>capture technology globally. It will also press ahead in developing new solutions to contribute to global environment protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mhi.com\/jp\/media\/389501\/download\" alt=\"Compact CO2 Capture System (photo courtesy of Taihei Dengyo Kaisha, Ltd.)\" width=\"675\" height=\"506\" title=\"Compact CO2 Capture System (photo courtesy of Taihei Dengyo Kaisha, Ltd.)\"\/><figcaption>Compact CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;Capture System (photo courtesy of Taihei Dengyo Kaisha, Ltd.)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About MHIENG\u2019s CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;capture technologies<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 1990, MHIENG (originally MHI) has undertaken the development of the KM CDR Process\u2122 (Kansai Mitsubishi Carbon Dioxide Recovery Process) and Advanced KM CDR Process\u2122 together with The Kansai Electric Power Co., Inc.
