CF Industries Holdings, Inc. 总裁兼首席执行官 Tony Will 表示：“埃克森美孚公司启动唐纳森维尔二氧化碳脱水和压缩设施以及开始封存，是我们公司脱碳历程中的历史性里程碑。通过现在启动永久性封存，我们可以减少排放，加快为客户提供低碳氨的速度，并开始产生宝贵的 45Q 税收抵免。”
CF Industries Holdings, Inc. has announced the start-up of the carbon dioxide (CO2) dehydration and compression facility at its Donaldsonville Complex in Louisiana. The facility will enable the transportation and permanent geological sequestration of up to 2 million tpy of CO2 that would otherwise have been emitted into the atmosphere. ExxonMobil, the Company’s carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) partner for this project, will be transporting and permanently storing the CO2.
On an interim basis, ExxonMobil is storing CO2 from the Donaldsonville Complex in permanent geologic sites through enhanced oil recovery. Upon receiving its applicable permits, ExxonMobil plans to transition to dedicated permanent storage, starting with its Rose CCS project. Rose is one of many dedicated permanent storage sites ExxonMobil is developing along the Gulf Coast to expand its integrated CCS network. The US Environmental Protection Agency issued a draft Class VI permit for Rose in July, and final permits are expected later this year.
“The start-up of the Donaldsonville carbon dioxide dehydration and compression facility and initiation of sequestration by ExxonMobil is a historic milestone in our Company’s decarbonisation journey,” said Tony Will, president and chief executive officer, CF Industries Holdings, Inc. “By starting permanent sequestration now, we reduce our emissions, accelerate the availability of low-carbon ammonia for our customers and begin generating valuable 45Q tax credits.”
As a result of its Donaldsonville CCS project, CF Industries expects to produce approximately 1.9 million tpy of low-carbon ammonia. CF Industries also expects to qualify for tax credits under Section 45Q of the Internal Revenue Code, which provides a credit per metric ton of CO2 stored.
