Where catch4climate is
catch4climate is at Mergelstetten, Germany, and this register holds no position for it. The company has confirmed the site and no citable source places the works: it is being built where nobody has yet drawn it. The row is held anyway — position is not a condition of being on file — and what was searched, and what was found instead, is below.
NO POSITION SOUGHT BY THIS PASS. Brief 8 forbids geocoding in a census -- a municipality is not a point -- and the owner statement that admits this row names the works and not a position. The works is Mergelstetten. A polygon for it is a separate job and the row is admitted without one, on the rule that position is not an admission leg.

- 2020-11-18AnnouncedHeidelbergCement, for the CI4C consortium: “At the site of the Mergelstetten cement plant in southern Germany, the consortium intends to build and operate its own demonstration plant on a semi-industrial scale, where the so-called oxyfuel process will be applied for CO2 capture.”source
Technology and measures
- Oxyfuel carbon capturedemonstrationThe kiln is fired with oxygen rather than air, so the flue gas is concentrated CO2 and needs far less separation, at the price of rebuilding the kiln rather than bolting equipment onto it.
Funding
No public capital recorded for this project.
