Unlock the net zero potential of your cement plant

The CCUS advantage

Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) is not a new technology, yet implementing it has its own complexities and challenges. We want to overcome these challenges and leverage the biggest opportunity CCUS can offer your cement plant: the key to net zero emissions.

CCUS is the cornerstone of net zero cement

The largest share of emissions (36%) from a cement plant can be reduced with carbon capture..

The urgent need for climate action requires us to act now. Therefore, we gathered some key information on this page to keep you up to speed on why you need carbon capture at your plant, what to consider when getting started with carbon capture, what supportive policies and funding schemes are available in different countries and how to reduce risks during project development and execution.

Carbon capture optimisation: add heat reduce risk

The article was originally published in the International Cement Review, November 2023

While a range of carbon capture technologies are available to the cement industry, not all are a suitable option in terms of cost and risk. Ramboll’s carbon capture centre of competency looks at the benefits of an integrated amine-based solution.
