en.Wedoany.com Reported - AFRY has been commissioned by Kanadevia Inova to provide engineering design services for the development of the UK's first full-scale carbon capture facility in the waste-to-energy sector.

The project is led by Encyclis, a UK-based owner and operator of waste-to-energy facilities, with green technology company Kanadevia Inova serving as the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor for the carbon capture plant.

AFRY's scope of work includes providing detailed engineering design services for the integration of the carbon capture plant with the existing energy recovery facility, covering steel structures and piping systems. Specific tasks involve mechanical and piping detailed engineering, structural calculations, support systems, and related technical documentation.

The carbon capture facility is part of the HyNet North West decarbonization cluster, a regional collaboration project in northwest England focused on carbon capture, hydrogen, and industrial emission reduction. Once operational, the facility is expected to achieve significant emission reductions by capturing both fossil and biogenic carbon dioxide from the waste-to-energy process.

Guy Skantze, Head of AFRY's Chemicals and Biorefining division, stated that carbon capture is a key technology in the transition to net-zero emissions, and this project demonstrates a pathway for implementing this technology at full industrial scale. AFRY's experience in complex industrial integration projects and energy infrastructure supports efficient delivery with its clients and partners.

This commission further solidifies AFRY's position as an engineering partner in carbon capture and industrial decarbonization projects across Europe.
