To supply Dow's Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero Project (Il Sole 24 Ore Radiocor) - Berlin, 27 Aug - German chemical company Linde said it has signed a long-term agreement for the supply of clean hydrogen to Dow's Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero Project with the company investing over 2 billion US dollars to build, own, and operate a world-scale integrated clean hydrogen and atmospheric gases facility in Alberta, Canada.

Linde's new on-site complex will use autothermal reforming, combined with Linde's proprietary HISORP^ carbon capture technology, to produce clean hydrogen and will also recover hydrogen contained in off-gases from Dow's ethylene cracker.

In the first phase, Linde will supply the clean hydrogen, nitrogen and other services to support Dow's world-first net-zero emissions integrated ethylene cracker and derivatives site.

Linde's new facility will also supply clean hydrogen to existing and new industrial customers seeking to decarbonize their operations.

In total, Linde's complex will capture carbon dioxide emissions for sequestration in excess of 2 million metric tons each year.

Upon completion in 2028, Linde's new complex in Alberta will be the largest clean hydrogen production facility in Canada, and one of the largest globally. It will be Linde's largest single investment and its second new world-scale clean hydrogen project, following the announcement of its project to supply clean hydrogen to a major blue ammonia project in the US Gulf Coast.
