CO₂ separation / carbon capture
CO₂ separation / carbon capture
Why CO₂ capture?
The challenges of climate change require decisive action. Achieving the 1.5°C target of the Paris Climate Agreement requires not only emission reductions, but also negative emissions – i.e. the active removal of CO₂ from the atmosphere. The CONENGA Group is working intensively on both approaches – with a particular focus on technical carbon capture.
The thermal utilization of fossil fuels unbalances the natural carbon cycle. CO₂ accumulates in the atmosphere and increases the greenhouse effect, making the earth warmer and warmer. As heat and energy generation, including through combustion processes, remain necessary, CO₂ capture offers a key opportunity to reduce emissions directly at source – especially in industrial plants.

Sabrina Kröhnert is your expert concerning CO₂ separation
Our focus: carbon capture for biogenic plants
The CONENGA Group specializes in retrofitting and optimizing CO₂ capture technologies in biogenic-fired plants. Our engineering teams analyze individual site conditions and develop tailor-made solutions.
Our core technologies
CO₂ absorption (amine scrubbing)
Amine scrubbing is the most established process for CO₂ separation. The CO₂ reacts with an amine solution and is separated and released in two steps (absorber and stripper).
Advantages:
- High separation efficiency
- Industrially proven and available
Challenges:
- Relatively high energy requirement, especially with high purity requirements
CO₂ adsorption (TSA)
In TSA technology, CO₂ is bound to solids by adsorption and released again by increasing the temperature in the desorber column. The CONENGA Group continues to develop TSA systems for industrial applications.
Features:
- High potential energy efficiency
- Use of flexible sorbents
- Configuration as fluidized bed or fixed bed reactor
This technology is currently still in the development phase, but shows great potential for industrial applications with high purity requirements.
Development and innovation
The CONENGA Group is involved in various research projects for the further development of adsorption processes and alternative carbon capture technologies. Our aim is to give our customers access to sustainable solutions at an early stage.
