JX, NYK, and KNCC Jointly Conduct Demonstration Experiment of Elevated Pressure (EP) Method in CO2 Liquefaction and Storage Process
LCO2-EP technology - flexible and cost effective
KNCC's LCO2-EP technology, developed for marine transportation and storage of liquified CO2 at ambient temparatures, offers shippers both flexible and cost effective solutions, whether the transportation requirement is from shore to sea or from offshore installations. Transporting CO2 at ambient temperatures reduces the need for compression and heating which are required for cryogenic and low temperature solutions for offshore discharge.
The technology is based on Knutsen’s PNG technology developed more than 20 years ago. This LCO2-EP containment system is scalable and can carry large volumes in one vessel.
