AVOIDING CO2 – AT CUSTOMERS’PLANTS
The best way for us to protect the climate is to ensure CO2 emissions are not generated in the first place.
We will achieve significant reductions in emissions by the end of this decade as a result of efficiency
measures . We apply BAR GAS technologies for more sustainable processes in industry
along the entire value chain. BAR GAS technology, for example, helps our customers separate CO2 from the waste gases in their industrial plants, so it can be used as an industrial raw material.
A win-win situation for our customers and the environment.
Here you can find out more about the measures we have taken.
900 tonnes
CO2 waste gas recycled as an industrial
raw material – every day
Making carbon capture and utilisation economically viable
Awareness of major ecological challenges is growing in every
region of the world.
We constructed the largest CO2 purification and liquefaction plant
In suez, Egypt.
Since 2006, this plant has been operating at full capacity, demonstrating that the
large-scale deployment of carbon capture and utilisation (CCU)
not only makes ecological sense but is also attractive from an
economic perspective. The CCU plant separates CO2 before it
can escape into the atmosphere and purifies it, so that it can
be used as an industrial raw material .
The recycled CO2 comes from out two plants installed in
• El Nasr For Fertilizers & Chemicals Industries
• Abu Qir Fertilizers
The plants produce 600 tonnes of liquefied foodquality
CO2 per day, which is transported to food and drink
manufacturers.
The use of this technology means that around
270,000 fewer tonnes of greenhouse gases are escaping into the air every year.

Carbon dioxide applications and uses :
Multi-Industry Uses for Carbon Dioxide (CO2):
Carbon dioxide in solid and in liquid form is used for refrigeration and cooling. It is used as an inert gas in chemical processes, in the storage of carbon powder and in fire extinguishers.
Metals Industry:
Carbon dioxide is used in the manufacture of casting molds to enhance their hardness.
Manufacturing and Construction Uses:
Carbon dioxide is used on a large scale as a shield gas in MIG/MAG welding, where the gas protects the weld puddle against oxidation by the surrounding air. A mixture of argon and carbon dioxide is commonly used today to achieve a higher welding rate and reduce the need for post weld treatment.
Dry ice pellets are used to replace sandblasting when removing paint from surfaces. It aids in reducing the cost of disposal and cleanup.
Chemicals, Pharmaceuticals and Petroleum Industry Uses:
Large quantities are used as a raw material in the chemical process industry, especially for methanol and urea production.
Carbon dioxide is used in oil wells for oil extraction and to maintain pressure within a formation.. When CO2 is pumped into an oil well, it is partially dissolved into the oil, rendering it less viscous, allowing the oil to be extracted more easily from the bedrock. Considerably more oil can be extracted from through this process.
Rubber and Plastics Industry Uses:
Flash is removed from rubber objects by tumbling them with crushed dry ice in a rotating drum.
Food and Beverages Uses for Carbon Dioxide:
Liquid or solid carbon dioxide is used for quick freezing, surface freezing, chilling and refrigeration in the transport of foods. In cryogenic tunnel and spiral freezers, high pressure liquid CO2 is injected through nozzles that convert it to a mixture of CO2 gas and dry ice that covers the surface of the food product. As it sublimates refrigeration is transferred to the product.
Carbon dioxide gas is used to carbonate soft drinks to prevent fungal and bacterial growth.
Liquid carbon dioxide is a good solvent for many organic compounds. It is used to de-caffeinate coffee.
It is used as an inert “blanket”, as a product-dispensing propellant and an extraction agent. It can also be used to displace air during canning.
Cold sterilization can be carried out with a mixture of 90% carbon dioxide and 10% ethylene oxide, the carbon dioxide has a stabilizing effect on the ethylene oxide and reduces the risk of explosion.
Health Care Uses:
Carbon dioxide is used as an additive to oxygen for medical use as a respiration stimulant.
Environmental Uses:
Used as a propellant in aerosol cans, it replaces more environmentally troublesome alternatives.
By using dry ice pellets to replace sandblasting when removing paint from surfaces, problems of residue disposal are greatly reduced.
It is used to neutralize alkaline water.
Miscellaneous Uses for Carbon Dioxide (CO2):
Liquid carbon dioxide's solvent potential has been employed in some dry cleaning equipment as a substitute for conventional solvents. This use is still experimental - some types of soil are more effectively removed with traditional dry cleaning equipment, and the equipment is more expensive.
Yields of plant products grown in greenhouses can increase by 20% by enriching the air inside the greenhouse with carbon dioxide. The target level for enrichment is typically a carbon dioxide concentration of 1000 PPM (parts per million) - or about two and a half times the level present in the atmosphere.
