Holcim UAE and 44.01 have commissioned the UAE's first industrial carbon capture and mineralisation pilot at Holcim Emirates Cement Plant, successfully capturing 4 to 4.5 tons of CO2 daily by injecting it into underground ultramafic rock formations for permanent storage.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Industrial.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You can now pitch permanent carbon capture as a viable industrial solution using local geology in the UAE. Heavy manufacturing founders should explore partnerships or technology adoption to meet Emirati decarbonisation goals ahead of broader regional rollout.
