Located at Plant Barry near Mobile, the facility utilizes the KM CDR Process technology, jointly developed by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Kansai Electric Power.
The CCS facility has been attached to a coal-fired power plant, owned and operated by Alabama Power.
The captured carbon dioxide will be supplied to the Southeast Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership and transported roughly 11 miles by pipeline before injection 9,500ft below the Citronelle oil field operated by Denbury Resources.
The CCS facility will capture about 150,000 tons of carbon dioxide annually for permanent underground storage in a deep saline geologic formation.
