Milan/Italy – Maire has recently announced that its Sustainable Technology Solutions subsidiary Nextchem and Marcegaglia Group (Marcegaglia) have signed a contract for a feasibility study to accelerate the decarbonization of Marcegaglia’s steel plant in Ravenna (Emilia Romagna region, Northern Italy). The study refers to the installation of carbon capture units from flue gases. Upon successful completion of the feasibility study, Nextchem will involve the Group’s Integrated E&C Solutions Business Unit for the execution of the Front-End Engineering Design (Feed).

These solutions, once implemented, have the potential to capture approximately 285 tons per day of CO2 that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere. Nextchem will provide a full assessment of the steel plant decarbonization capacity and will define the technical specifications for the carbon capture solutions.
