Nippon Gases Deutschland teams with Verbio to recover biogenic CO2

In Germany, Nippon Gases Deutschland, a European subsidiary of Nippon Sanso Holdings Corporation, is set to cooperate with VERBIO Vereinigte BioEnergie AG to recover biogenic CO2. To this end, the industrial gases specialist Nippon Gases is investing in the construction of a modern plant for the purification and liquefaction of CO2 from VERBIO’s bioethanol production at the Zörbig site, and is building a plant in the immediate vicinity for the further processing of the CO2 into dry ice. The two companies recently signed a corresponding strategic agreement.
