The CCUS One-Stop Shop

A Legacy of Success in Heavy Industry & Thermal Power
 

For nearly 50 years, International® has supplied high-performance coatings to reduce emissions and protect key assets, including flue gas desulfurization (FGD) units in coal-fired plants. Today, we bring that trusted expertise to CCUS facilities, ensuring durability, efficiency, and long-term performance.

Our CCUS Coating Solutions Are Designed to:
 

• Reduce CAPEX through optimized material selection
• Protect against hot flue gases, solvents, corrosion under insulation, acids, cryogenic spill and the external environment
• Improve operational efficiency and minimize downtime
• Deliver safe, on-time project execution

How Carbon Capture Works                        

1. Pre-Combustion Carbon Capture
 

• Separates hydrogen & CO₂ before combustion by creating syngas, enabling CO₂ removal before combustion.
• Ideal for new-build CCUS plants.

2. Oxyfuel Combustion
 

• Burns fuel with pure oxygen to allow solvent-free CO₂ separation post-combustion.
• Suitable for cement and lime industries.

3. Post-Combustion Carbon Capture
 

• Captures CO₂ from mixed gaseous streams after standard combustion.
• Solvent-based separation system for easy integration into existing thermal power plants, refineries, and petrochemical plants.

Solving CCUS Challenges with Advanced Coatings

1. CO₂ and Carbonic Acid Corrosion
 

The Challenge: CO₂ and water are in equilibrium, and form carbonic acid, which can cause rapid equipment degradation through corrosion. This will result in equipment shutdown & loss of CO₂ capture capability of the facility.
 

Our Solution: Our coatings – Enviroline®,  Interline®, and Ceilcote® – provide proven acid and solvent resistance to maintain long-term asset integrity.

2. Flue Gas Ducting Corrosion
 

The Challenge: Corrosion in flue gas ducting can cause leaks, reducing CCUS efficiency and increasing maintenance costs.
 

Our Solution: Ceilcote coatings provide internal protection to ducting from chemical degradation, ensuring operational reliability. Additionally, Interbond ® UPC coatings offer external protection at high temperatures.

3. Cryogenic Spill Protection
 

The Challenge:  Pure CO₂ may be stored at low temperatures. Any accidental release may risk external structural steel embrittlement and failure.
 

Our Solution: Chartek is the world's most trusted brand for CSP, with a world class track record.
