Rethinking Carbon Emissions: How CCU Enables Circularity
By turning emissions into a resource, CCU supports a circular approach to carbon use and gives the CO₂ a renewed purpose. Although the carbon is eventually re-released (e.g., when a fuel is used), CCU helps avoid the extraction and use of new carbon thereby reducing overall emissions.
As a leading eFuel facility developer, Liquid Wind uses CCU to produce fossil-free eMethanol – an energy carrier that enables emissions reductions in hard-to-abate sectors like shipping and aviation. With this paper, the company aims to highlight the importance of CCU across industries, while also addressing the policy and scale-up challenges the technology faces.
"CCU is all about circularity and rethinking carbon emissions by putting them back to work instead of letting them go to waste. For us at Liquid Wind, it's an essential technology because it allows us to capture biogenic CO₂ from industrial flue gases and turn it into fossil-free eMethanol, a sustainable fuel alternative for hard-to-abate sectors," says Claes Fredriksson , CEO and founder of Liquid Wind, and continues: "This White Paper outlines where the technology stands today, and what's needed to scale it as a practical climate solution."
