PROCESS Worldwide brings to you the ‘Top 10 plant engineering projects of October 2024’ from all over the world. Right from Thyssenkrupp being awarded a feed contract for one of the largest carbon capture projects in Europe to BASF securing funding for the world’s largest industrial heat pump for CO2-free steam generation, find out all the projects making headlines here.

Hycamite TCD Technologies has recently inaugurated Europe’s largest methane-splitting plant in Kokkola, Finland. Once fully operational, the nominal capacity of Hycamite’s Customer Sample Facility is expected to reach 2,000 tonnes of low-carbon hydrogen and 6,000 tonnes of high-quality carbon annually.

Thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering has bagged a feed contract from Hystar for an automated 4.5 GW electrolyzer manufacturing line for its GW factory in Høvik, Norway.

Located at MOL’s Százhalombatta refinery in Hungary, the 10 MW facility is claimed to be the largest green hydrogen plant in Central and Eastern Europe. The plant is expected to produce 1,600 tonnes of clean, carbon-neutral green hydrogen per year which will be used for fuel production.

BP and Iberdrola have announced a final investment decision to develop a 25 MW green hydrogen project at BP's Castellón refinery in Spain. The project has secured funding of 15 million euros from the Spanish Recovery, Transformation, and Resilience Plan, with funding allocated by Nextgeneration EU.

Linde has plans to invest more than 2 billion dollars to develop a world-scale integrated clean hydrogen and atmospheric gases facility in Alberta in order to supply clean hydrogen to Dow’s Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero Project in Canada.

The Oil & Gas Decarbonization Charter is one of the landmark initiatives launched at COP28. It is a global industry effort dedicated to speeding up climate action and achieving high-scale impact across the oil and gas sector. The Oil & Gas Decarbonization Charter has recently published its first report to baseline, prioritize and track progress on emissions reductions.

Under an agreement signed between Adnoc and Exxonmobil, Adnoc will acquire a 35 % equity stake in Exxonmobil’s low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia production facility which is expected to be developed in Baytown, Texas, USA. The landmark project is capable of producing up to 1 billion cubic feet of low-carbon hydrogen daily.

Under a Strategic Collaboration Agreement signed between Adnoc, Masdar and Microsoft, the three companies will work together to decarbonize the energy system of today and enable a sustainable energy system for the future.
