8 Rivers
Damian Beauchamp is President & Chief Development Officer at 8 Rivers.
Houston was the gathering place for leading energy, industrial, and government executives in mid-November for Reuter's Energy Transition North America. Key industry changemakers met and strategized the path to decarbonization and how to deliver net zero. Public Utilities Fortnightly was at the conference and talked with key changemakers on these important issues and more.
PUF's Steve Mitnick: Not everyone knows about 8 Rivers, but it's a cool option for power generation in North America and worldwide. Give an overview.
Damian Beauchamp: It's not just power generation. We do process technology innovation to produce today's commodities using today's feed stocks, but we create a constraint that our processes have to inherently capture all the carbon dioxide from production.
We're able to then eliminate the emissions from the production of today's existing commodities, be it steel, hydrogen, ammonia, calcium carbonate, or other building materials, while simultaneously maintaining the economic profile of production today of unabated assets.
PUF: You all were explaining that you have a power generation system that's like combined cycle, but kind of not. Talk about that.
