Bouman Industries and Conoship International have agreed on forming a joint venture to build a ship-based carbon capture (SBCC) systems
The partnership, Carobotreat Maritime, is going to focus on helping shipowners and operators reduce CO2 emissions on both their newbuilds and existing vessels. Carbotreat Maritime will be building systems for coastal ships smaller than 10.000 kW.
Conoship International’s CEO Geert Dokter said, “It’s my pleasure to announce that Bouman Industries and Conoship International start a joint venture to build ship-based carbon capture systems. Bouman Industries with its subsidiary Carbotreat is known for its strength in building field-proven land based carbon capture systems. With this joint venture, Carbotreat Maritime, we develop these systems suitable for use on ships to reduce CO2 emissions in maritime application. Together we can accelerate the decarbonization of the maritime sector in the coming decades. This partnership therefore ensures Conoship International’s mission to provide the shipping industry with practical solutions to achieve low or zero-emission ships.”
Bouman Industries CEO, Wilco Van Wijck commented, “With our realized land-based CO₂ capture plants, combined with Conoships expertise, we can deliver large-scale carbon capture and storage plants onboard ships. Research has shown that our Carbon Capturing Systems enable to reach the IMO goals 2030 and 2050, even for existing ships. With Carbotreat Maritime we can reduce the carbon footprint of shipping with more than 75% in the short term and are aiming for 100% in the future.”
