Business Wire
Regulatory News:
Air Liquide (Paris:AI), through Air Liquide Engineering &
Construction, is actively leveraging on its complete portfolio of
innovative technology solutions to support the decarbonization of
its industrial customers. Autothermal Reforming (ATR) is one of the
latest technologies utilized enabling the efficient production of
large scale, low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia, when combined with
carbon capture technology. One of the leading companies for ATR,
Air Liquide's technology has been selected for Japan's first
demonstration project owned and operated by INPEX CORPORATION to
produce low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia.
While other reliable solutions are available on the market
today, such as Steam Methane Reforming with carbon capture, ATR is
one of the most suitable options for specific larger scale
low-carbon hydrogen production facilities. When ATR is combined
with carbon capture technology, customers can achieve higher energy
efficiency, lower investments and a simplified single train
production process to facilitate carbon capture of up to 99% in
highly integrated industrial facilities.
Air Liquide is one of the leading companies for Autothermal
Reforming with proprietary technologies in the ATR process for
large scale syngas production applications. Air Liquide Engineering
& Construction will now provide the technology for low-carbon
hydrogen and ammonia production to a pilot project owned and
operated by INPEX CORPORATION, a Japanese oil & gas exploration
and production company. ATR will be part of the development of the
Kashiwazaki Clean Hydrogen and Ammonia Project in the Hirai area of
Kashiwazaki City, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. The overall project
will be Japan’s first demonstration project integrating low-carbon
Hydrogen and Ammonia production with carbon capture.
Michael J. Graff, Executive Vice President, Air Liquide
Group, stated: ”Air Liquide’s expertise in providing customers
with efficient, reliable, innovative technologies and solutions is
at the heart of our ambitions to support the decarbonization of
industries. We are pleased to collaborate with INPEX CORPORATION
and to be one of the contributors to the development of this first
demonstration low-carbon Hydrogen and Ammonia project in
Japan.”
