C4U is a holistic interdisciplinary project involving the collaboration with 8 European countries and Mission Innovation Countries (Canada, China and USA). The project aims to address all the essential elements required for the optimal integration of CO2 capture in the iron and steel industry as part of the CCUS chain. This project includes the scale-up of two solids-based CO2 capture technologies, the DISPLACE and CASOH processes (post- and pre-combustion configurations respectively), aiming to raise the TRL from 5 to 7. In addition, the economic, environmental and business analysis will be evaluated for these technologies, as part of the assessment of reaching TRL 9. The study will consider their integration in one ArcelorMittal steel plant within the North Sea Port industrial cluster, including the transport and storage infrastructure.
