Ardent will be expanding its production capacity of Carbon Capture membranes at its facility in New Castle, DE. The investment enables 10x expansion of units over the next two years to fulfill the growing CO2 capture market in the US and internationally. Its chemically resistant membranes allow creative and low cost designs of industrial flue gas capture in traditionally hard to abate petchem, kiln, boiler, bio-energy, agricultural process industries.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released applicant self-disclosed information for 22 projects across 17 states that voluntarily shared with DOE that they received a total of nearly $1 billion in allocations from the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Credit (48C). Nine of the self-disclosed projects indicated they are located in 48C energy communities – communities with closed coal mines or coal plants—showcasing the Biden Administration’s commitment to investing in America’s energy communities.
