Attendees to next week’s 2016 Carbon Capture: Utilization & Storage (CCUS) conference in Tysons VA will get the comprehensive results from CO2 Solutions Inc.’s demonstration project.

Taking place between June 14 and 16, the conference is the gathering of key decision makers and technical experts in the commercialization of CCUS/CCS systems. More information on the event is HERE.

Last summer, Quebec City-based CO2 Solutions conducted a 10 tonnes per day carbon capture demonstration at its facility in the province. It ran successfully for more than 2,500 hours. According to the validation results from Tetra Tech Inc., CO2 Solutions' packed tower process configuration, when applied at large scale, would reduce the cost of carbon capture to below $40 per tonne (including compression) and below $30 per tonne (without compression).

"Confirming the robustness and low cost nature of our technology has been a key milestone and resulted in considerable traction with potential commercial partners and various governments," said Evan Price, CEO at CO2 Solutions. "These results and their third-party validation have enabled us to step up our commercialization efforts and consequently we are engaged in a growing number of discussions for the application of our technology in North America and internationally."

Dr. Louis Fradette will present the detailed findings. He said that the results have increased the company’s visibility and standing within the carbon capture industry.

"The data we will be presenting will clearly show that our proprietary solution offers benefits beyond what is available on the market today. This data forms the input for the detailed engineering and costing of commercial units, and we look forward to sharing this information with a growing audience,” added Fradette.
