Ben Gurtler, commercial director of carbon capture at KES, commented on the occasion: “With our advantaged capabilities in plant equipment design and services, KES is excited to partner with Chart, an established global engineering and manufacturing company with all mission-critical equipment and technology for carbon capture in a one-stop shop.”
One of the first projects to benefit from this collaboration will be Chart’s signature Cryogenic Carbon Capture™ (CCC) system, a highly innovative and sought-after technology that has the potential to reduce industrial-level CO2 by 90–99%.
The collective efforts concerning this project will be focused on pinning down sites to utilize and further develop this technology.
Chart Industries will also be able to rely on Koch Engineered Solutions’ mass transfer equipment and onsite vessel construction capacities, as well as their engineering and procurement know-how, which can serve to great advantage in Chart’s new small-scale CCC project at Central Plains Cement Company LLC’s cement plant in Sugar Creek, Missouri, scheduled to begin operations in 2023.
