據世界天然氣7月12日消息：法國液化空氣集團與其他幾家行業巨頭簽署了一份諒解備忘錄，旨在幫助法國諾曼底地區的工業盆地實現脫碳。

　　與液化空氣集團合作的公司包括Borealis、Esso S.A.F、TotalEnergies和Yara International ASA。他們將共同致力于脫碳工作，探索二氧化碳基礎設施的開發，包括在該地區進行捕獲和儲存。

　　該集團目標的第一階段將涉及研究整個項目的技術和經濟可行性，其中包括到2030年每年減少多達300萬噸的二氧化碳排放量，相當于100多萬輛乘用車的排放量。

　　這將通過合作實施從其工業設施到北海存儲的工業碳捕獲和存儲(CCS)鏈來實現。

　　液化空氣集團執行副總裁、兼歐洲工業活動監督委員會成員Fran?ois Jackow在評論這一合作時表示，“法國液化空氣集團很高興以其在二氧化碳捕獲和液化技術方面的獨特專長為該項目做出貢獻。”

　　“自2015年以來，液化空氣集團在其諾曼底港Jér?me的工廠成功實施了CrocapTM，這是一項創新的專有二氧化碳捕獲和液化技術，可捕獲高達90%的二氧化碳排放。”

　　他還表示，為應對全球變暖做出貢獻的更廣泛倡議符合液化空氣公司的氣候目標，即到2050年實現碳中和。

　　Borealis化肥、技術氮和三聚氰胺業務的首席運營官Leo Alders表示，“我們對這個項目的濃厚興趣，首先是由于可以實現顯著的溫室氣體減排。尋求并參與氣候挑戰的解決方案是我們對社會的責任。”

　　這些公司認識到，為了保持和提高阿克斯塞納/諾曼底地區工業活動和生態系統的可持續性，工業企業在中長期內減少二氧化碳排放至關重要。

　　Air Liquide partnership to help decarbonise industrial basin, Normandy

　　A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been signed between Air Liquide and several other industry leaders in an effort to help decarbonisation the industrial basin in the Normandy region, France.

　　Along with Air Liquide, the partnership consists of Borealis, Esso S.A.F., TotalEnergies and Yara International ASA. Working together in a decarbonisation effort, they will explore the development of a carbon dioxide (CO2) infrastructure including capture and storage in the area.

　　The first phase of the group’s objective will involve studying the technical and economic feasibility of the entire project, which will consist of reducing CO2 emissions by up to three million tonnes per year by 2030, the equivalent to the emissions of more than one million passenger cars.

　　This will be achieved through collaborating to implement an industrial carbon capture and storage (CCS) chain from their industrial facilities to storage in the North Sea.

　　Commenting on the partnership, Fran?ois Jackow, Executive Vice President, Air Liquide, and member of the Air Liquide Group’s Executive Committee supervising Europe Industries activities, said, “Air Liquide is pleased to contribute to this project its unique expertise in CO2 capture and liquefaction technologies.”

　　“Since 2015 Air Liquide has successfully implemented CrocapTM in its plant in Port Jér?me, Normandy, an innovative proprietary CO2 capture and liquefaction technology, which allows to capture up to 90% of CO2 emissions.”

　　He also said that the wider initiative to contribute to the fight against global warming is in line with Air Liquide’s Climate objectives, which target carbon neutrality by 2050.

　　Leo Alders, Chief Operating Officer, Borealis Fertiliser, Technical Nitrogen and Melamine business, said, “Our strong interest in this project is in the first place driven by the significant GHG reduction that can be achieved. It is our responsibility to society to seek for and engage in solutions for climate challenges.”

　　The companies recognise that, in order to retain and improve sustainability of industrial activities and ecosystems in the area of Axe Seine/Normandy, it’s important for industrial players to reduce CO2 emissions in the medium and long term.
