Solvanic Conducts Carbon-Capture FEED Study at Coastal Bend LNG Facility

  • Solvanic’s EMAR technology uses electricity for CO2 capture, reducing energy needs and CAPEX compared to traditional systems.
  • Coastal Bend LNG collaborates with Solvanic to improve carbon-capture efficiency for its low-carbon LNG objectives.

The carbon-capture technology leverages an electrochemical process—CO2 is released and then captured by amines with electricity, reducing costs and energy requirements.

Solvanic started a front-end engineering and design (FEED) study for its electrochemically mediated amine regeneration (EMAR) carbon-capture technology at Coastal Bend LNG on Texas’ Gulf Coast—a multi-train natural gas liquefaction and export facility.

“We have demonstrated our EMAR solution to Technology Readiness Level 4 with low energetics, high stability, and modular scalability across emission sources,” said Dr. Michael Nitzsche, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer, Solvanic. “This FEED study accelerates our techno-economic analyses for gas processing and post-combustion carbon capture with the full engineering support of Coastal Bend LNG and their contractors.”…
