Holcim and Neustark Partner on Construction Carbon Capture
Groundbreaking Collaboration Aims to Significantly Reduce Carbon Footprint in Cement Manufacturing
In a groundbreaking partnership, Holcim, a global leader in building materials and solutions, and Neustark, a pioneer in carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technology, have joined forces to develop and implement carbon capture solutions for cement manufacturing. This collaboration marks a significant step towards reducing the industry's carbon footprint and achieving net-zero emissions targets.
Innovative Technology to Capture and Utilize CO2 Emissions
Neustark's innovative Carbon Capture System (CCS) is a cornerstone of this partnership. The CCS employs proprietary adsorption technology to capture CO2 directly from the cement plant's flue gases, effectively reducing emissions. The captured CO2 is then converted into valuable products, such as synthetic fuels and chemicals, through Neustark's proprietary CCU process. This not only reduces the cement industry's carbon footprint but also creates new revenue streams.
Holcim's Commitment to Sustainability
Holcim's partnership with Neustark aligns with its long-standing commitment to sustainability. As a signatory to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), Holcim has pledged to align its operations with a 1.5°C pathway, reducing its CO2 emissions by 47% by 2030 and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
Holcim's Sustainability Strategy focuses on four key areas: climate change, circular economy, nature, and people. The partnership with Neustark significantly contributes to Holcim's climate change agenda, providing concrete solutions to reduce emissions and accelerate the transition to a sustainable future.
Neustark's Expertise in Carbon Capture
Neustark brings extensive expertise and a proven track record in carbon capture to this collaboration. The company's CCS has been successfully deployed in various industries, demonstrating its effectiveness in capturing and utilizing CO2 emissions. With Neustark's technological prowess and Holcim's global reach, this partnership is poised to make a significant impact on the cement industry's carbon footprint reduction.
Collaboration for a Sustainable Future
The Holcim and Neustark partnership is a testament to the power of collaboration in tackling global challenges like climate change. By combining their respective strengths, these two industry leaders aim to revolutionize cement manufacturing, reduce emissions, and pave the way for a more sustainable built environment.
