CEMCAP CO2 capture from cement production

Coordinator: SINTEF ENERGI AS (NO)

The European cement industry has committed itself to contributing to climate protection measures and therefore to curbing its CO2 emissions. CO2 capture technologies, although an essential part of all CO2 reduction scenarios, are not yet ready for large-scale deployment in the cement industry. Hence, the primary objective of CEMCAP isTo prepare the ground for large-scale implementation of CO2 capture in the European cement industry To achieve this objective, CEMCAP will- Leverage to TRL 6 for cement plants the oxyfuel capture technology and three fundamentally different post combustion captur…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

EU contribution: €8.8M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 3.5 years from 2015-05-01 to 2018-10-31.
