Where ECCO2-LH is

ECCO2-LH is at Carboneras, Spain, 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 Carboneras. 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.

Technology and measures

  • Post-combustion carbon captureearly-commercialCO2 is separated from the kiln's flue gas after combustion, using an amine or solvent process bolted onto an existing plant, which is what makes it the retrofit route for kilns that are not being rebuilt.
