Ecospec inks deal with German AE&E on onshore emissions

Homegrown firm Ecospec Global Technology has taken a step closer to setting its proven CSNOx system as a standard for emission control in onshore heavy industries.

The Singapore technology and research company specializing in environmental emission abatement, energy and water technologies announced today it has inked a cooperation agreement with German company, AE&E Lentjes GmbH to build CSNOx systems in selected pilot or pre-scale up projects.

AEL is a leading, international engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) company specializing in process and plant engineering, design, and supply including the erection of turn-key projects for diverse, power plant applications. As part of this agreement, Ecospec and AEL will embark on two potential pilot projects.

Ecospec managing director Chew Hwee Hong said, “It is a fact that onshore industrial industries account for the bulk of global emissions today, and we are delighted to have AEL coming onboard jointly to fight the global climate change issue.”

This is the second strategic partnership that Ecospec has successfully forged with leading companies in a month, reflecting growing interest in its CSNOx technology, the firm said.

In December 2009, Ecospec entered into a technology and integration partnership with an established Korean EPC company, STX Heavy Industries, to integrate the CSNOx system in its plant construction projects.

To date, this partnership is progressing well with plans to build a CSNOx system for a power plant located in South Korea.

According to a media report published in November 2009, South Korea released 590 million tons of the greenhouse gases in 2005. If no action is taken to cut emissions, South Korea is expected to produce 813 million tons of greenhouse gases in 2020. The country aims to cut emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases by 30 percent below expected levels in 2020.

Moving ahead, Ecospec intends to collaborate with leading global EPC companies to continue its efforts in making CSNOx an industrial norm for emission control within the power generation, oil and gas and other heavy industries.

“We believe that this business model works well for Ecospec as we are able to tap on the competitive strengths that these leading companies have in their industries, such as expertise in plant construction, a strong brand name, and solid customer bases.

“Seeing the accelerated pace at which CSNOx is being accepted in industrial emission control practice, we are positive and confident that Ecospec’s goal to help the world solve the climate change issue is realistic and achievable,” said Mr Chew.
