Carbon Capture Pilot Rig Gears up for its European Tour!

The first in a series of updates about Optiperm™ Carbon membrane pilots in the field.

Last year, we announced three new pilot partnerships in key industry applications: RHI Magnesita, a global producer of refractory materials, voestalpine, a major steel producer, and OMV, a leading petrochemical company.

Today’s milestone: Construction is now complete for the first of three pilot rigs, which will go to OMV in Austria. Construction on the other two rigs is underway. Testing these small rigs onsite in industrial conditions is an important step in demonstrating the performance of the technology before we scale up to larger systems for commercial deployment.

The rig is heavily instrumented to enable remote and automated operation of the rig and in-depth data collection so we can validate the membrane performance in the field under various conditions.
