Aker Carbon Capture signs LoI for "large" carbon capture project

Aker Carbon Capture has signed a letter of intent for the delivery of two Just Catch units for an undisclosed European customer, it said on January 3.

Both units will be part of a project with a capture capacity of 200,000 metric tons/year of CO₂. The final investment decision on the project is expected in the second quarter of 2023.

At Twence's waste-to-energy facility in the Netherlands, Aker Carbon Capture is currently delivering a Just Catch unit with a capacity of 100,000 mt/yr CO₂. This plant will be in operation by the end of 2023.

Aker Carbon Capture's Just Catch modular concept is a standardised product that enables prefabrication of carbon capture units. The plants can be operational within two years.

“The letter of intent for two Just Catch units marks a milestone in the company's mission to mass produce carbon capture units for the mid-scale emitter market,” the company said.
