Messer, the world’s largest privately owned industrial gas specialist, is teaming up with a manufacturer of inorganic chemicals to pioneer innovative carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) at a plant in Landeck, Austria, leveraging Sulzer’s advanced mass transfer technologies.
The carbon capture unit, powered by Sulzer Chemtech’s proprietary technology, is set to capture over 50,000 tons of CO2 annually. This reclaimed CO2 will find new life in the food & beverage industry and benefit companies in the surrounding regions.

By maximising efficiency, performance, and productivity, our mass transfer components empower businesses globally to embrace more sustainable practices.”
