Modular Plant Solutions Named Modularization Partner for ION Clean Energy’s Revolutionary Carbon Capture Technology

Nov 22, 2024

MPS team of engineers will optimize carbon capture units for scalability and commercial use

HOUSTON, November 22, 2024 — Global engineering firm Modular Plant Solutions (MPS) announced today that ION Clean Energy (ION), a leader in innovative carbon capture solutions, has chosen their team to serve as ION’s modularization partner as ION evaluates a potential standard modular carbon capture unit offering. Under this strategic partnership, the MPS team will lead the engineering and optimize the design of the units, which could be available in multiple sizes to fit different commercial needs.

ION has established itself at the forefront of the carbon capture industry with its transformational carbon capture technology that captures more CO2 with extremely low emissions and less waste. The carbon capture units that will be engineered by MPS will be designed for potential use in post combustion carbon capture applications.

As the modularization expert, MPS will leverage its extensive experience and engineering capabilities for ION’s potential modular carbon capture units. The team will apply their patented modularization system approach for scaling production of the units.

“Our modularization design would make it possible for ION’s module frames to be shipped by truck, rail or containerized cargo ship, so they can get their technology to more plants in more places,” said Russell Hillenburg, president/CEO and co-founder of Modular Plant Solutions. “We are excited to contribute to the advancement of carbon capture technology and support ION Clean Energy’s mission to have a large-scale impact on emissions reduction.”

MPS’s patented design for plant modules is based on the ISO-1496/CSC standard, but also allows more flexibility to accommodate tall process structures, absorber columns, flue gas stacks, flares, and other tall equipment.
