Mercer (Nasdaq: MERC) subsidiary Mercer Peace River Pulp Ltd. and Svante have begun operating a carbon dioxide capture demonstration unit at the Peace River pulp mill in northern Alberta.
The pilot will test Svante’s solid sorbent technology on biogenic CO2 from the mill recovery boiler flue gas, following a completed FEL-2 pre‑FEED that assessed design, site integration, cost and risk. The demonstration is expected to run for approximately six months to produce technical and operational data to inform any future engineering phases and commercial-scale planning. Further advancement depends on demonstration results and additional economic, technical and commercial considerations.
