Swedens’s Salt X Technology announced the launch of their multi-plasma upgrade project, which aims to scale the patented electric plasma calcination technology to 1 Mta capacity. The grant has been provided by Frontier Climate, which was founded to accelerate carbon removal with the goal to catalyse a diverse portfolio of appropriate companies. The project by Salt X seeks to expand the company’s current plasma heater module size from 40000 tpy to much larger single-unit capacities (photo: Salt X Research Center). For the development of its first industrial pilot plant this year, Salt X partners with SMA Mineral and thyssenkrupp.
