Carbon Clean, SAMSUNG E&A form alliance to accelerate deployment of modular carbon capture systems
(WO) — Carbon Clean, a global provider of cost-effective industrial carbon capture solutions, and SAMSUNG E&A have formed an alliance aimed at scaling up deployment of modular carbon capture technology across energy and industrial sectors worldwide.
The partnership integrates Carbon Clean’s CycloneCC™ system—a compact, fully modular, columnless capture unit—with SAMSUNG E&A’s engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) expertise and its AHEAD execution model, which emphasizes off-site construction and early-stage design automation. Together, the companies plan to deliver pre-fabricated, scalable systems that can be installed faster and at lower cost compared to traditional carbon capture units.
The alliance will focus on accelerating decarbonization across hard-to-abate industries by combining Carbon Clean’s amine-promoted buffer salt solvent (APBS-CDRMax®) and Rotating Packed Bed (RPB) technologies with SAMSUNG’s large-scale project execution capabilities.
“The partnership with SAMSUNG E&A represents an important milestone in commercializing modular carbon capture,” said Aniruddha Sharma, Chair and CEO of Carbon Clean. “Their EPC expertise and global project experience will help make carbon capture as standardized and scalable as solar or wind deployment.”
According to Hong Namkoong, CEO of SAMSUNG E&A, the collaboration “integrates Carbon Clean’s breakthrough modular design with our proven project delivery model to accelerate the rollout of efficient, reliable carbon capture systems worldwide.”
The companies have already cooperated on carbon capture projects with Aramco and MODEC earlier this year, demonstrating the technical compatibility of their respective systems.
Carbon Clean’s CycloneCC™ C1 Series technology represents a major shift in carbon capture design, with modular units up to 50% smaller and 10 times more compact than conventional systems. Each train can capture up to 100,000 tonnes of CO₂ per year, with reduced material use and simplified installation requirements, making the technology suitable for both industrial and upstream energy applications.
The partnership underscores a broader trend in the oil and gas industry toward standardized, modular carbon capture solutions that can be deployed at scale to support net-zero and LNG decarbonization goals.
