Saudi petrochemical company kickstarts operations of its carbon capture facility: <\/strong>Saudi Arabia\u2019s Rabigh<\/a><\/a>Refining and Petrochemical Company<\/a> (Petro Rabigh) \u2014 a JV between Saudi Aramco and Japan\u2019s Sumitomo Chemical \u2014 opened its new carbon capture and utilization facility located north of Jeddah, according to a press release<\/a> published on Wednesday. The facility is set to capture 300 metric tons of CO2 daily from the company\u2019s Mono Ethylene Glycol<\/a> (MEG) plant, equivalent to a 85% reduction of the plant\u2019s annual emissions.<\/p>\n

The details:<\/strong> The captured CO2 will be purified for various productive uses like water desalination, carbonation in food and beverages, agricultural applications, and use in ready mix concrete, the press release added. Industrial gas producer Gulf Cryo<\/a> designed, constructed, and operated the advanced carbon capture plant. <\/p>\n

Not Gulf Cryo\u2019s first decarbonization project in the region: <\/strong>In June,Gulf Cryo partnered with Emex for Engineering and Construction to establish a unit to process hydrogen gas for various uses<\/a> in Egypt, and market and sell it under an agreement with the state-owned Egyptian Chemical Industries (Kima). Earlier in the year, Egypt\u2019s state-owned Misr Chemical Industries also tapped Gulf Cryo for a hydrogen exploitation project<\/a> under a build, own, operate contract. Saudi mining company Ma\u2019aden<\/a> signed a 20-year agreement with the gas company to operate a carbon capture plant<\/a> in its phosphate complex in Ras Al Khair last year. <\/p>\n

Regional players are relying on carbon capture:<\/strong> Dubai Municipality and Masdar signed an MoU earlier this month to establish a carbon capture plant<\/a> at Dubai Municipality\u2019s Al Warsan waste-to-energy plant. Bahrain's Bapco Energies and Japan's Mitsui OSK Lines (MOL) also signed an MoU in December to develop cross-border CO2 transport<\/a> and sequestration in a bid to eventually establish a carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) value chain. <\/p>\n

About Petro Rabigh<\/strong>: <\/strong>The JV, which was formed in 2005, produces about 18.4 mn tons per annum (MTPA) of petroleum-based products and 2.4 MTPA of ethylene and propylene-based derivatives, according to their website<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
