Emerson Products Selected for Europe’s Largest Carbon Capture Demonstration Project
Thursday, May 26, 2011
Doosan Power Systems has chosen Emerson Process Management to

technology on a semi-commercial scale over a two-year period beginning in 2011.
Currently under construction, the demonstration project will
be the largest in Europe, capturing 100 metric tons of carbon dioxide per day
-- the equivalent of what might be produced by five megawatts of coal-fired
power generating capacity. More…
