Stockholm Exergi Carbon Capture Project Chooses Air Liquide’s CO2 Liquefaction Technology


Stockholm Exergi has made a significant step forward in its Bio-Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) project by selecting Air Liquide’s Cryocap™ LQ CO2 liquefaction technology. This state-of-the-art technology will facilitate the long-distance transportation of liquid CO2 to permanent carbon storage locations, enhancing the feasibility of CCS projects.

Philippe Merino, Group Vice President at Air Liquide, highlighted the importance of the Cryocap™ LQ technology in large-scale CCS projects. The agreement between Air Liquide and Stockholm Exergi will see the installation of a CO2 liquefaction unit at an existing biomass heat and power plant in Stockholm, with a capacity of 3,500 tonnes per day. The BECCS facility aims to store approximately eight million tonnes of biogenic CO2 in its first decade of operation, supported by the European Innovation Fund.

Air Liquide’s Cryocap™ LQ technology, known for its safety, sustainability, and energy efficiency, showcases the company’s expertise in cryogenics. This chemical-free and non-flammable process allows for the recovery and reuse of heat generated during the liquefaction process to supply Stockholm’s district heating network.

This groundbreaking project marks a significant milestone in the development of CCS value chains and aligns with Air Liquide’s strategic plan to contribute to the emergence of a low-carbon society. With the implementation of the Cryocap™ LQ technology, Stockholm Exergi is advancing towards its goal of managing waste and CO2 effectively, paving the way for a more sustainable future.
