University of Sheffield awarded a contract to Mission Zero Technologies Ltd for the procurement of a Direct Air CO2 Capture (DAC) system, funded by the European Regional Development Fund.

The system will complement existing research capabilities in low carbon power generation and applications in energy/CO2 intensive industries, and support the development of carbon capture and utilisation technologies.

It will provide a platform for product development, innovation, and systems integration across a wide range of research activities at the National Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC), focusing on bioenergy, renewable energy, and carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS).

The captured CO2, along with on-site hydrogen from renewable resources, will be utilised in an on-site Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production plant to produce green fuel for turbines/engines.

The contract value is AUD 607,711.
