Calix and AdBri to build first zero-emission lime plant 22 April 2021
Calix and Adelaide Brighton (Adbri Ltd) are to develop a lime project with CO
2 capture and multi-fuel options In Australia. The project represents a world-first development of a commercial-scale, zero-emissions lime production facility.
Calix and Adbri s intend to progress a feasibility study covering site selection, raw materials and proof of marketable product, and basis of design covering CO
2 capture from lime production, and multi-fuel/energy options, targeting early 2022 completion.
Feasibility work on the project would cover lime production of around 30,000tpa, including demonstration of 20,000tpa of CO
2 capture and multiple fuel options (including natural gas, hydrogen and electricity). The project is framed around a five-year development and demonstration programme and will also seek appropriate funding under the federal government s low emissions technology roadmap.
