NRCan’s New Facility Aims to Help Reduce Canada’s Carbon Footprint

The transportable, trailer-mounted, modular CanCO2 is well suited for field testing and pilot-scale demonstration projects. In fact, CanCO2 is capable of separating CO2emissions generated by oxy-fuel power plants, which burn fuel and pure oxygen, as well as other industrial sources. Read More
