The CCU plant was inaugurated by T. V. Narendran, CEO & MD, Tata Steel, in the presence of Company officials and other dignitaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
T. V. Narendran, CEO & MD, Tata Steel,\u00a0<\/strong>said:\u00a0\u201cIn alignment with the Tata group\u2019s pioneering values, we have taken this strategic step in our journey towards decarbonisation.\u00a0We will continue our quest to remain an industry leader in sustainability by setting new benchmarks for a better tomorrow. For the sustainability of the steel industry globally and particularly in a growing country like India, it is essential that we find economical solutions for capturing and use of CO2 at scale. Leadership in mitigating emissions, accessing low-cost clean energy, and providing circular economy solutions will define our sector\u2019s journey going forward.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n\u201cThe operational experience gathered from this 5 tonnes per day CO2 capture plant will give us the required data and confidence to establish larger carbon capture plants in future. As the next step, we aim to establish scaled up facilities of CO2 capture integrated with utilisation avenues,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>he added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nTata Steel continues to pursue its goal to be the industry leader in sustainability by reducing its CO2 emission intensity and specific freshwater consumption, developing sustainable supply chain, and contributing towards the future circular economy. The Company has undertaken a two-pronged approach of Carbon Direct Avoidance (CDA) and CO2 Capture and Use in pursuit of the decarbonisation goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aniruddha Sharma, CEO, Carbon Clean,<\/strong>\u00a0said:\u00a0\u201cWe are delighted to be working with Tata Steel on this breakthrough project. We are currently capturing 5 tonnes of CO2 per day, but following our successful demonstration, we plan to rapidly accelerate the number of carbon capture projects. Capturing CO2 from blast furnace gas will not only decarbonise the steel plants but will also open avenues for hydrogen economy.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nCarbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) is a key lever in the fight against climate change and global warming. The \u2018Tata Steel – Carbon Clean\u2019 collaboration in the CCU field is a timely initiative and a step towards a sustainable tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the past few years, Tata Steel has invested in multiple initiatives in harnessing clean and renewable energy, generation and use of Green Hydrogen and adopting waste heat recovery technologies. Tata Steel is a member of ResponsibleSteelTM<\/sup>, the industry\u2019s first global multi-stakeholder standard and certification initiative, to further its sustainability goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\nTata Steel has also made progress in its steel recycling business initiative, which is a definitive step towards sustainable steel production. The Company has set-up its first Steel Recycling plant at Rohtak in Haryana which will enable lower carbon emissions, resource consumption and energy utilisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both, Tata Steel India and Tata Steel Europe have been recognised by the World Steel Association (worldsteel) as Steel Sustainability Champions for four years in a row. The recognition is a testament to Tata Steel’s commitment to sustainable business practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In September 2020, Tata Steel had joined hands with the Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR) to work in the field of Carbon Capture, Utilisation & Storage (CCUS), to build a strong ecosystem in the country for meeting the decarbonisation commitments under the Paris Agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
About Carbon Clean<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nCarbon Clean is a global leader in low-cost CO2 capture technology. The company\u2019s patented technology significantly reduces the costs and environmental impacts of CO2 separation, when compared to existing techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The technology has been proven at scale in power, cement, refineries, CHP and heavy industry boilers in over 10 locations, including the UK, USA, Germany, India, Norway and the Netherlands. It is currently in use at the world\u2019s largest industrial-scale carbon capture and utilisation plant in Tuticorin, India for the chemicals sector. The UK Government has supported Carbon Clean\u2019s development of its technology through competitive grants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company was awarded a \u2018Technology Pioneer\u2019 award by the World Economic Forum and most recently selected as one of Cemex Ventures Top50 ConTech startups and named a 2021 Global Cleantech 100 company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
