Aramco, Carbon Clean and SAMSUNG E&A Partner on Carbon Capture Plant

Stuart Mitchell

This technology demonstration is designed to deploy Carbon Clean’s novel CycloneCC technology to capture CO2 from natural gas turbine exhaust streams containing approximately 4% CO2. The modular CycloneCC unit has a 50% smaller footprint compared to conventional carbon capture processes. If successful, the CycloneCC technology is estimated to reduce the total installed cost of carbon capture systems by up to 50% compared to conventional systems, while maintaining high performance and process efficiency even at low CO2 concentrations. Ali A. Al-Meshari, Aramco Senior Vice President of Technology Oversight & Coordination, said:…

TotalEnergies, Aramco and SABIC complete MENA region’s first processing of oil from plastic waste at scale to make certified circular polymers

Stuart Mitchell

TotalEnergies, Aramco and SABIC have for the first time in the Middle East and North Africa successfully converted oil derived from plastic waste into ISCC+ certified circular polymers. The plastic pyrolysis oil, also called plastic waste derived oil (PDO), was processed at the SATORP refinery jointly owned by Aramco and TotalEnergies, in Jubail, Saudi Arabia. It was then used as a feedstock by Petrokemya, a SABIC affiliate, to produce certified circular polymers. The project aims to pave the way for the creation of a domestic value chain for the advanced…
