New catalyst produces sulfur-free CO2 from Icelandic geothermal facility

Icelandic geothermal power company HS Orka hf has signed a contract with Topsoe for a plant to transform excess CO2 into a commercial product. The plant is the first to use Topsoe s
new selective oxidation catalyst SMC™ to remove sulfur from CO2 – which is an attractive commercial opportunity for many geothermal power plants around the world.

Geothermal heat sources around the world are utilized for green power production but can also deliver commercially attractive CO2. However, the valuable gas is typically polluted by sulfur that prevents its industrial use and also can cause unpleasant odor. Topsoe’s new selective oxidation catalyst SMC™ removes sulfur from the off-gas, eliminates smell, and produces commercial grade CO2.
