The Roanoke Cement Company, LLC (RCC) has been awarded a $61,700,000 Cooperative Agreement from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under the Clean Energy Demonstrations program (CFDA 81.255). The project aims to construct and operate a first-of-its-kind calcined clay production line in the United States for producing limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) at the RCC plant in Troutville, Virginia. The project plans to enable annual production capacity of 300,000 short tons of calcined clay, with...
The Department of Energy (DOE) awarded a $500,000,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Clean Energy Demonstrations (CFDA 81.255) program to Heidelberg Materials US, Inc. (Heidelberg Materials) for the Mitchell Cement Plant Decarbonization Project. This project, located in Mitchell, Indiana, is designed to capture at least 95% of carbon dioxide emissions from the cement plant and steam generation, preventing 2 million metric tons of CO2 per year from entering the atmosphere. The project will...
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) awarded a $189M Cooperative Agreement under the Clean Energy Demonstrations program (CFDA 81.255) to Brimstone Commercial, LLC. Brimstone will construct and operate a new plant to commercialize a deeply decarbonized process for making Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and co-products, including Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM) and Smelter-Grade Alumina (SGA). The project will develop a transformative chemical-based cement production process that...
This federal Cooperative Agreement award from the Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), under the Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086), provides $3,026,792.00 in funding to Calcify LLC's Carbon Capture Machine (CCM) division to develop a low-emissions, carbon-neutral cement production process. The project aims to utilize a proprietary carbonation reactor and a reactive form of calcium carbonate synthesized from captured...
This Cooperative Agreement award, valued at $9,622,050.00, was granted by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program. The project aims to design, build, and field test an engineering-scale membrane hybrid carbon capture system at a cement plant. Key objectives include: 1) Capturing over 95% of the cement plant's carbon dioxide emissions, 2) Implementing a community benefits plan to...
The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management has awarded a $13,257,761 Cooperative Agreement under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) federal grant program to CYG Nittany, LLC. The goal of this project is to demonstrate the commercial and carbon dioxide (CO2) mitigation potential of a pilot-tested CO2 utilization technology. Specifically, the project will use CO2 emitted from an industrial lime production plant as a feedstock to produce ultra...
The Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) awarded a $86,907,197 Cooperative Agreement to Sublime Systems, Inc., a woman-owned small business, to construct the first commercial-scale electrochemical cement manufacturing facility in Holyoke, Massachusetts. This project, funded under the DOE's Clean Energy Demonstrations program (CFDA 81.255), aims to demonstrate a transformational cement production process that replaces carbon-intensive limestone with abundant...
This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) under the Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086) provides $5,296,800 to Calportland Co. to develop a new and innovative method for mineralization of CO2 with processed recycled concrete. The project aims to use the carbonated paste from the recycled concrete as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) in blended cement formulations, with...
This $95,000,000 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under the Clean Energy Demonstrations program (CFDA 81.255) supports Delek US Holdings, Inc. in designing and building a large-scale pilot carbon capture system at its Big Spring, Texas refinery. The project aims to capture 145,000 metric tons of CO2 annually from a fluid catalytic cracking unit, with plans to expand to capturing 730,000 metric tons across 10 flue gas sources. The captured CO2 will be...
The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded C-Crete Technologies LLC a $2,500,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Fossil Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.089). The project aims to develop a low-cost, high-yield, and scalable process to mineralize carbon dioxide (CO2) into a specialized formulation of carbon-negative concrete. C-Crete Technologies will apply advanced synthesis, green chemistry, and standard concrete testing and scale-up...
