Tech Innovation Drives Industrial Decarbonization: NEWTEK Group’s CCUS Solutions Deliver Tangible Emission Cuts

Against the backdrop of global net-zero commitments, Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) has emerged as a critical pathway for deep decarbonization in high-emission industries. However, industry-wide challenges such as high energy consumption, prohibitive costs, and poor scenario adaptability have long hindered its large-scale commercialization. Leveraging over two decades of expertise in industrial gas processing and the deployment of more than 9,000 gas systems worldwide, Newtek Group has extended its core capabilities in gas separation, compression, and purification to the CCUS sector. With targeted technological innovations and end-to-end service capabilities, the group provides measurable and profitable decarbonization solutions for steel, chemicals, coal power, and other industries.

Targeted Breakthroughs: Solving Core CCUS Pain Points

Rejecting conceptual hype, Newtek Group focuses on the actual decarbonization needs of industrial enterprises, achieving multiple practical breakthroughs in key CCUS links to ensure decarbonization technologies truly fit industrial production scenarios.

✅️Low-Energy Efficient Capture: Reducing Decarbonization Costs

Addressing the high energy consumption and significant solvent loss of traditional carbon capture processes, Newtek has developed high-efficiency, low-consumption absorbents. Combined with an integrated "two-towers-in-one" composite absorption column design, the technology merges flue gas pretreatment and carbon capture into a single process, drastically reducing flue gas transportation resistance and system energy consumption. This solution can accurately capture low-concentration CO₂ from industrial flue gas with a stable capture rate exceeding 92% and gas purity of over 99%. Compared to conventional industry processes, it reduces overall energy consumption by 18%-22% and unit carbon capture costs by approximately 15%, successfully overcoming the barrier of "prohibitive decarbonization costs" for small and medium-sized industrial enterprises .

✅️Modular Flexible Deployment: Adapting to Diverse Industrial Scenarios

Dispersed carbon emission sources and varying operating conditions are major obstacles to large-scale CCUS promotion. Drawing on its mature experience in modular industrial equipment design, Newtek has launched standardized carbon capture equipment suites that can be flexibly combined based on flue gas composition and emission scales across different industries. Equipped with quick-installation interfaces, the equipment eliminates the need for large-scale modifications to existing production facilities. A single system can adapt to capture capacities ranging from 10,000 to 100,000 tons per year, shortening project construction cycles by 30%-40% compared to the industry average . These modular systems have been successfully deployed and are operating stably in multiple small and medium-sized chemical parks and regional coal-fired power plants.
 

✅️End-to-End Synergy: Enabling Carbon Resource Circulation

Newtek has broken through the limitations of single-link capture, constructing a full-process technical system covering "capture-transportation-utilization-storage." In the transportation phase, it offers independently developed supercritical CO₂ compressors to enhance efficiency while reducing energy consumption. On the utilization front, the group links its gas application technologies to convert captured high-purity CO₂ into valuable resources for enhanced oil recovery (EOR), chemical raw material synthesis, and mineralized building material production . For storage, Newtek collaborates with professional geological institutions to optimize deep saline aquifer storage solutions, complemented by multi-dimensional monitoring systems to ensure long-term storage safety. In a refinery project, this closed-loop system achieves annual CO₂ capture and utilization of 68,000 tons, helping the enterprise meet emission reduction targets while generating over 10 million yuan in additional annual revenue through carbon resource utilization.

Proven in Practice: Validating Technology Value Across Scenarios

Newtek's CCUS innovations are rooted in practical application. Through its integrated "technology-equipment-service" model, the group has delivered tangible results in industrial scenarios worldwide:

For a small-to-medium coal-fired power enterprise in North China, Newtek customized a lightweight CCUS system that integrates with existing flue gas treatment processes without production shutdowns. Captured CO₂ is transported via pipelines to nearby greenhouses as fertilizer, creating a virtuous cycle of "emission reduction + agricultural income increase" with annual CO₂ reduction of 32,000 tons.

For enterprises in an East China chemical park, the group developed a carbon capture system coupled with production processes. Captured high-purity CO₂ is directly used to synthesize urea, ammonium bicarbonate, and other products, reducing raw material procurement costs and optimizing production carbon footprints. The project's investment payback period was shortened by 1.5 years compared to expectations.
 

Leveraging its global service network, Newtek provides full-cycle support from project surveying, scheme design, and equipment supply to operation and maintenance. A CCUS project for a regional steel enterprise was commissioned in just 3.5 months from signing to commissioning, enabling rapid emission reduction outcomes.

Upholding Green Mission: Becoming a Reliable Partner for Industrial Decarbonization

As a global group deeply rooted in the industrial gas sector, Newtek integrates technological innovation with environmental responsibility. Through its global R&D centers and engineering service teams, the group continuously optimizes CCUS technology and equipment performance, promoting localized production of core components to further control costs and enhance accessibility. Adhering to the principle of "technology adapting to scenarios and emission reduction balanced with benefits," Newtek rejects impractical technology stacking. Instead, it aligns precisely with enterprise needs, transforming CCUS from a "policy-driven" initiative into an "endogenous driver for sustainable development."
 

Looking ahead, Newtek Group will continue to focus on core industrial decarbonization needs, deepening the integration of CCUS technology with specific production scenarios. It will promote the deployment of more replicable and scalable decarbonization solutions, providing solid technical support and engineering experience for global industrial green transformation.
