US Steel and CarbonFree sign MoU to capture CO2 at Gary Works

Green Car Congress

CarbonFree’s patented SkyCycle technology captures carbon emissions from hard-to-abate industrial sources before they enter the atmosphere, converts the CO 2 into the specialty chemical precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC), and produces hydrochloric acid (HCl) as a co-product. SkyCycle is CarbonFree’s second-generation technology.
