Heidelberg Materials intends to equip the Antoing plant of its Belgian subsidiary CBR with an innovative hybrid carbon capture unit. Antoing is a state-of-the-art cement plant with one of the world’s best-performing kilns in terms of specific CO₂ emissions, which was recently modernised and is ready to be used for the project with no further need for modification. The innovative second-generation OxyCal concept combines the established Oxyfuel and Amine capture technology in a hybrid unit that no longer requires an additional preheater tower. This means a significant reduction in the need for structural steel and concrete, which considerably improves the resource efficiency of the system. Once operational, the project will reduce CO₂ emissions from Antoing by more than 97 %, equalling around 800,000 tonnes of captured CO₂ annually.
