Summary

Verdox has completed a useful industrial demonstration at Hydro’s Sunndal aluminum smelter in Norway. During a two-month test, its electrochemical process captured carbon dioxide from exhaust containing only about 1% CO₂ and operated in the presence of contaminants found in real smelter gas. Hydro’s investment and continued work with Verdox give the trial more weight than a laboratory demonstration or a technology-company test carried out on a prepared gas stream. The demonstration establishes that the capture chemistry can operate in a relevant industrial environment.
