CO2 Engineering | Use Cases in CO2 Engineering and Industrial Decarbonization Gazechim

Description :

Based in Béziers, French industrial group specializing in the distribution of gases, refrigerants and composite materials

Solution deployed :

Design and commissioning of a distillation column for refrigerant gas treatment

Benefits :

Carbon footprint reduction of ~2000 tons/year of emissions – Commissioning March 2025

Budget <€1.5M

ROI < 2 years

Solution for decarbonating flue gases from combustion equipment: CO2 Net Zero

Equipment: 10 MW boiler
Proposed solution: flue gas decarbonation and methanol production
Benefits: economic and environmental
20,000 T of CO2 not released into the atmosphere / year
€1.38M / year (July 2025 CO2 Quota: €69 / T)
15,000 T of e-methanol produced / year
€5.2 M (Market price considered: €350 / T)

Two-step process for this business case:

  1. Hydrolysis of water to produce 2/3 of oxygen requirements
  2. Catalytic reaction between CO2 and H2 to produce methanol and 1/3 of oxygen requirements
