About

ELECTRA demonstrates that electric heating can substitute fossil fuels in the cement, lime, and pulp industries.

ELECTRA develops and validates in real life emission-free, electrically heated cement, lime and lime mud production process in MW scale capable of reaching temperature up to 2000°C. By using low-emission electricity instead of combustion for decomposing calcium carbonate, and by capturing the carbon dioxide produced in the production process, it is possible to run plants with close to zero carbon dioxide emissions providing even negative-emission products for the society. Successful implementation of the ELECTRA concept will eliminate fuel-related CO₂ emissions, and in addition, unavoidable calcination-related CO₂ is captured efficiently and at low costs, resulting in over 90% total CO₂ reduction and even enabling negative CO₂ emissions across the targeted industries.

01
Operational Objective Alignment

ELECTRA directly contributes to Process4Planet’s objective of developing new electrified processes and promoting energy efficiency, aligned with the broader goal of renewable energy utilization.

02
Carbon Capture Enhancement

By elevating CO₂ concentration in flue gas to over 99%, ELECTRA simplifies and reduces the cost of carbon capture, supporting the development of efficient CO/CO₂ capture and purification technologies.

03
FOAK Plant Advancement

Through industrial pilots, ELECTRA advances towards first-of-a-kind (FOAK) plants, driving innovation and derisking investment in electrified processes.
