Carbon Capture Solutions

GEA is committed to developing cutting-edge carbon capture technologies, enabling customers´ industries such as cement, steel, glass, and bioenergy to accelerate their transition to a low-carbon economy. 

Our carbon capture technologies portfolio allows for a complete, fast, and cost-efficient adaptation to future industry standards. It consists of the following units:

• XECO Waste-Heat-Recovery Units
  Utilization of excess heat from industrial processes and of flue gases is the first step towards Carbon Capture & Utilization. The excess heat can be collected and transferred to the Carbon Capture unit by means of our GEA XECO Waste-Heat-Recovery Systems.
  
  
• SETO Gas Pre-Treatment Units
  An important pre-requisite for Carbon Capture is Flue Gas Pre-Treatment to ensure the long-term stability of the Carbon Capture system. GEA SETO technology offers various solutions for cooling and condensation, removal of solids, aerosols, sulfuric and nitric oxides, and more.
  
  
• CEBO Carbon Capture Units
  Currently, the most mature process for large scale Carbon Capture is chemical absorption with amines. GEA offers amine-based CO₂ capture plants in various sizes as part of the GEA CEBO line, allowing for CO₂ capturing from a very broad spectrum of exhaust gas compositions.
  
  
• NAVO CO₂ Utilization & Sequestration
  Captured CO₂ must replace fossil carbon to avoid anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. This can be achieved by Utilizing CO₂ to produce CO₂-based products or by liquefying and Sequestrating CO₂ in long-term storages, both with help of GEA technologies.
