Summary
The objective of this project is to optimize and operationally validate CO2 Solutions' enzymatically-accelerated solvent approach for low-cost carbon dioxide (CO2) capture from natural gas combustion emissions in the Alberta oil sands. The proponent and its partner will optimize and demonstrate the proponent's enzymatic technology to efficiently capture 90% of the CO2 from oil sands production and upgrading operations. The results of the project will also be applicable to implementation of the technology at other major sources of natural gas combustion emissions in Canada and abroad, such as in power generation.

Program Purpose (French)
Ce projet a pour but d'optimiser et de valider sur le plan opérationnel l'approche des solvants accélérés par enzyme de CO2 Solutions pour le captage à faible coût du dioxyde de carbone (CO2) provenant des émissions provoquées par la combustion du gaz naturel dans les sables bitumineux de l'Alberta. Le promoteur et son partenaire optimiseront et démontreront la technologie enzymatique du promoteur pour capturer efficacement 90 % du CO2 provenant de la production des sables bitumineux et des opérations de valorisation. Les résultats du projet seront également applicables à la mise en uvre de la technologie à d'autres sources importantes d'émissions provoquées par la combustion du gaz naturel au Canada et à l'étranger, telles que la production d'énergie électrique.
