据管道新闻网6月5日消息称,Nucor公司与埃克森美孚签署了一项协议,从该公司位于路易斯安那州Convent的直接还原铁(DRI)工厂捕获、运输和储存碳。埃克森美孚每年将从DRI工厂捕获80万吨二氧化碳,并将其储存在埃克森美孚在路易斯安那州的一家工厂中。

Nucor公司董事长、总裁兼首席执行官Leon Topalian表示:“埃克森美孚合作的这个变革性CCS项目是我们脱碳战略的关键组成部分,将成为北美地区碳含量最低的国家之一。我们正在采取多方面的方法来实现脱碳,这种伙伴关系建立在我们之前在无碳铁初创企业、可再生能源发电和小型模块化核反应堆技术开发方面的投资基础上。”

该项目预计将于2026年启动,并支持路易斯安那州到2050年实现二氧化碳净零排放的目标。

埃克森美孚低碳业务总裁Dan Ammann表示:“与Nucor公司的合作是我们履行使命的最新例证,我们正在帮助加速世界实现净零排放的道路。我们期待着应用我们的技术和专业知识来减少Nucor的排放。”

凭借其基于回收的生产方法,Nucor已经是世界上最清洁的钢铁制造商之一。

与埃克森美孚达成的碳捕获和储存协议进一步巩固了Nucor作为可持续发展领导者的地位,并建立公司能够生产低碳钢铁和钢铁产品的创新基础。

Exxon Mobil Signs Carbon Capture and Storage Deal with Nucor

Nucor Corp. has signed an agreement with Exxon Mobil to capture, transport, and store carbon from the company's direct reduced iron (DRI) plant in Convent, Louisiana. Exxon Mobil will capture up to 800,000 metric tons per year of CO2 from the DRI plant and store the CO2 at an Exxon Mobil-owned facility in Louisiana.

"This transformative CCS project with Exxon Mobil is a key part of our decarbonization strategy and will result in some of the lowest embodied carbon DRI or HBI in North America," Leon Topalian, chair, president and CEO of Nucor Corp., said. "We are taking a multi-faceted approach to decarbonization, and this partnership builds on previous investments we have made in a carbon-free iron start-up, renewable energy generation, and the development of small modular nuclear reactor technology."

The project is expected to start-up in 2026 and supports Louisiana's objective of reaching net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050.

"This collaboration with Nucor is the latest example of how we're delivering on our mission to help accelerate the world's path to net zero," Dan Ammann, president of Exxon Mobil Low Carbon, said. "We look forward to applying our technology and expertise to reducing emissions for Nucor."

With its recycling-based production method, Nucor is already one of the cleanest steelmakers in the world.

This carbon capture and storage agreement with Exxon Mobil furthers Nucor's status as a sustainability leader and builds on the innovation that has enabled the company to produce steel and steel products with low embodied carbon.
