Air Liquide has recently inaugurated a carbon dioxide (CO2) recovery plant, in partnership with AGL Energy, leading Australian energy supplier.
The new Air Liquide plant will capture 50,000 tonnes per year of CO2 emitted by AGL Energy’s power plant, located in Torrens Island, Adelaide, South Australia. CO2 produced by the power generation is now captured, concentrated, purified, liquefied and then delivered by Air Liquide to its South Australian customers.
