Final Stop: Value Maritime onboard CO2 Capture and Storage Facility
Address: Galileistraat 32f, 3029 AM, Rotterdam
Website: https://valuemaritime.com/
Value Maritime is a young maritime technology company based in Rotterdam. It has developed the world’s first onboard CO2 Capture and Storage solution for the Maritime Industry. Its system is based on an innovative and patented technology to remove CO2 from the vessels exhaust gas. The CO2 is used to charge Value Maritime’s CO2 Battery; an onboard storage facility which can charge and discharge CO2 infinitely. The charged CO2 Battery will be offloaded in ports and transported to CO2 customers (e.g. agricultural sector) who “re-use” the CO2. After CO2 discharge, the CO2 Battery returns to the vessel, to be recharged with CO2; A 100% circular solution!
With the installation of Value Maritime’s CO2 Capture Module and CO2 Battery, Value Maritime is the first company worldwide to install a capture and storage facility onboard of a vessel in operation. Class Bureau Vertitas is involved in the relevant approval of the system. Value Maritime will start loading and offloading the CO2 Batteries at the Rotterdam Short Sea Terminal to discharge the batteries at greenhouses in Rotterdam Area, who will re-use the CO2 to grow their crops.
During the visit to Value Maritime, conference participants will learn more about their onboard CO2 Capture and Storage solution for the Maritime Industry. Provided the system is available during the visit, participants will also be able to have a first-hand look at their Filtree system with integrated CO2 capture feature during the visit.
