Abstract
[en] More and more, the CO2 issue is making people talk about it. Increasing emissions are impacting our entire society. CO2-emitting companies and governments must act quickly to avoid excessive global warming.
As an engineering company, John Cockerill designs various equipment for thermal power plants and recovery boilers to optimize energy production. Its position on the energy market gives it the credibility to invest in CO2 capture and recovery technologies. To determine where John Cockerill should invest, it is necessary to analyze the opportunities available to the company.
Capture techniques are the first to have been developed. They were developed in the 1970s to clean natural gas from its CO2 content. Now, we hope to apply them to thermal power plants, which produce more than 40% of anthropogenic CO2. The capture technology is mature but not yet well adapted to thermal power plants. Currently, capture processes are not part of John Cockerill's portfolio, however the design of the structure to accommodate the reaction and its optimization are two actions that can be included in John Cockerill's portfolio.
The second area analysed is the recovery of captured CO2. Once isolated, it is necessary to use this CO2 to produce another product or to store it permanently. The second option, completely out of John Cockerill's midst, remains its revaluation as raw materials.
This rapidly expanding environment is increasingly moving to the forefront as the ideal alternative to CO2 emissions. Since capture does not bring any benefit to the company, its reuse offers the possibility of obtaining a refund or, better still, an added value. This rapidly expanding market is very large, leaving room for John Cockerill to establish himself. Despite the multitude of possible reactions, CO2 hydrogenation remains the most affordable for John Cockerill, who, with these green electrolysers, produces decarbonated hydrogen. The other possibilities use too specific reactions, they do not offer a real interest for John Cockerill. However, it is still possible for John Cockerill to offer his process optimization services.
