Heidelberg Materials and Linde have established a joint venture under the name “Capture-to-Use” (CAP2U) to build and operate a state-of-the-art carbon dioxide capture and liquefaction plant. The world’s first industrial-scale carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) facility in the cement industry is scheduled to start operations in 2025 at Heidelberg Materials’ Lengfurt plant in Germany. The facility will enable the captured CO₂ from cement production to be reused as a valuable raw material in manufacturing applications. The planned volume of purified and liquefied CO₂ is around 70,000 tonnes per year. For the implementation of this project, the substantial contributions of both partners will be supplemented by funding of around €15 million from the Decarbonisation of Industry funding programme on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK).
