Carbon Clean has the technological edge – significantly reducing the cost of carbon capture through its standardised, modular carbon capture system.
“We are already delivering exciting projects in APAC, including commissioning a 10 tonnes per day carbon capture unit at Taiheiyo Cement Corporation’s Kumagaya City plant in Japan, and we know there are many more companies who will need carbon capture solutions in the coming years.”
