Membrane Technology and Research (MTR) Carbon Capture was honored to participate in a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signing ceremony between Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) and the Taiwan Ministry of the Environment describing their intent to install carbon capture on waste-to-energy plants in Taiwan.
MTR’s Polaris membranes were publicly acknowledged during the November 13 event as the capture technology of choice for these plants.
The MOU was signed by Taiwan’s Minister of Environment, Dr. Peng Chi-Ming and TSMC Senior VP, Ms. Lora Ho. Mr. Brett Andrews, President of MTR Carbon Capture, attended the signing ceremony.
“MTR is looking forward to deploying our clean carbon capture systems in Taiwan to help world-leading companies like TSMC decarbonize their operations,” said Mr. Andrews.
MTR’s Polaris™ membrane process uses no chemicals and very little water, making it a much cleaner and environmentally friendly capture technology compared to alternative solvent based capture systems.
Polaris™ also does not require heat or steam input, which generate additional CO2 emissions, as many capture approaches do, resulting in low operating costs.
Capture systems utilizing MTR’s membrane technology are highly modular and compact, providing flexibility for limited space applications and reducing capital costs.
