プロジェクト概要
The Brandon project operated by O.C.O Technology Limited focuses on the production of carbonated building materials for carbon capture and utilization. Situated at High Street, Brandon, Suffolk, UK IP27 0AX, the Brandon facility plays a significant role in the innovative process of converting CO₂ emissions into solid building materials. Through accelerated carbonation, CO₂ is reacted with alkali earth hydroxides and silicates to produce carbonated aggregate from waste materials.
The manufacturing process at the Brandon facility involves blending different thermal residues, conditioning them with water, and exposing them to an elevated concentration of CO₂ to accelerate the carbonation process. This results in the production of carbonated aggregate with a verified carbon content of 144 kg of CO₂ per tonne of aggregate product. Compliance assessments, necessary permits, and verification activities ensure adherence to the Puro Standard General Rules and Carbonated Building Material Methodology.
The Brandon project, like other O.C.O Technology Limited initiatives, exemplifies the company's commitment to sustainable carbon removal through innovative carbon capture and utilization techniques. By converting CO₂ emissions into valuable building materials, the Brandon facility contributes to global efforts in mitigating climate change and promoting environmental sustainability.
