en.Wedoany.com Reported - Carbon capture company Mantel has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with engineering firm Wood to accelerate the commercial deployment of high-temperature carbon capture technology in industrial applications.

Under the agreement, Wood will serve as Mantel's preferred combustion equipment integration partner for future commercial projects. The collaboration builds on years of joint technical work between the two companies, with the core objective of directly integrating carbon capture systems into industrial equipment such as boilers, gas turbines, and once-through steam generators (OTSGs).

The first commercial project under this partnership is already progressing at a steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) facility in Western Canada. Wood is currently leading the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) for the project, overseeing combustion equipment integration and the broader engineering scope. The facility is expected to capture approximately 60,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually while generating around 150,000 tonnes of high-pressure steam for operations.

Richard Spires, Global Director at Wood, stated that in SAGD operations, steam generation is the largest source of CO₂ emissions, and by integrating carbon capture directly into the heat source, this dynamic is being transformed.

Mantel's technology uses molten borate chemistry to capture carbon dioxide directly from high-temperature industrial processes, eliminating the need to cool and reheat flue gas. This step is widely recognized as one of the biggest cost drivers in traditional carbon capture systems. According to Mantel, this approach helps reduce complexity and improves efficiency for industries with high steam and heat demands, including oil and gas, power generation, and manufacturing.

Cameron Halliday, Co-founder and CEO of Mantel, said that successfully deploying carbon capture in heavy industry requires not only innovative chemistry but also adaptation to the practical realities of how these systems operate on a daily basis.

The two companies stated that the agreement lays the foundation for larger-scale commercial deployment by combining Mantel's capture technology with Wood's expertise in industrial systems engineering and integration.
