CO2 Solutions begins commissioning of carbon capture unit at the Resolute pulp mill in Quebec

QUEBEC (News repoease) -- CO2 Solutions Inc. provided an update on the Corporation's first commercial project with Fibrek General Partnership, a subsidiary of Resolute Forest Products Inc., and Serres Toundra Inc. The project involves the deployment of a 30-tonne per day (tpd) CO2 capture unit and ancillary equipment at Resolute's pulp mill in Saint-Félicien, Quebec and the commercial reuse of the captured CO2 by the adjacent Toundra Greenhouse complex.

The Corporation announced that the start of the commissioning of the CO2 capture unit officially took place on March 14, 2019. This start-up was preceded by the successful pre-operation verifications of each of the capture unit's systems, after which the unit was put into operation and the first tonnes of CO2 were captured.

The Corporation now expects to ramp up the overall capture rate to validate the unit's nominal capacity of 30 tonnes of CO2 per day.

Once the Saint-Félicien capture unit reaches its nominal capacity of 30 tonnes of CO2 per day, a six-month demonstration period will begin, after which the commercial phase will begin and the Corporation will generate revenues from the sale of the CO2 to Toundra Greenhouse.

This unit, the Corporation's second operating CO2capture unit, is a first-of-a-kind commercial unit and, as a result, it confirms the enzymatic technology's attainment of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 8.

CO2 Solutions is a carbontech leader in the field of enzyme-enabled carbon capture and has been actively working to develop and commercialize the technology for stationary sources of carbon pollution.
