A key contract to enable carbon capture at a major Humber industrial facility has been issued.
US-headquartered renewable, environmental and thermal energy technologies specialist Babcock & Wilcox will design a pre-treatment process for flue gas at Phillips 66’s Humber Refinery.
It is part of a huge plan to clean up the heaviest polluting cluster in Britain, decarbonising the Energy Estuary in a major step for Net Zero Britain. The complex refinery is part of the Humber Zero carbon capture plan, partnered with neighbouring gas-fired power facility VPI Immingham, which it formerly owned. The project aims to capture up to eight million tonnes of CO2 by 2030, storing it below the North Sea.
