Adam Vincent, General Manager – Lime decarbonisation at Calix, is presenting a LEILAC Virtual Tour at the Carbon Capture, Utilization & Storage Virtual Forum 2021.
The Carbon Capture, Storage & Utilization Virtual Forum examines the latest technology advances, business models, research findings, and real-world applications for capturing, storing and utilizing carbon dioxide.
About LEILAC
The LEILAC project is based on a technology called Direct Separation, which aims to enable the efficient capture of the unavoidable process emissions from lime and cement production.
Calix’s technology re-engineers the existing process flows of a traditional calciner, indirectly heating the limestone via a special steel vessel. This unique system enables pure CO2 to be captured as it is released from the limestone, as the furnace exhaust gases are kept separate. It is also a solution which requires no additional chemicals or processes, and requires minimal changes to the conventional processes for cement as it simply replaces the calciner.
